Letters to the editor: Glad the chancellor is safe
It is with great dismay that I read Heather Steeves’ article of March 22, in which it was reported that Chancellor Pattenaude is announcing likely layoffs.
Of course, and this is difficult to say, it was reported that financial aid to students “is currently the hardest hit.”
As an alumnus (M.A. in Economics, 1996) I am relieved to know the chancellor need not worry about his job. We all know that a university can function without students, without faculty, and even without heat.
But a chancellor and his staff constitute the heart of a university system. After all, would UMS look as prestigious if it didn’t model itself after Wall Street? Please, keep the chancellor’s office!

RE: Reinforcing the Obama Brand
Obama brand is going to be a 3.6 trillion dollar budget with a 1.55 trillion dollar budget deficit. Change you can believe in.
