What's New in Finance & Administration
Wanted: Your Cost-Saving Ideas
Last year we solicited your ideas on how to reduce expenses. Seventy-six suggestions provided ideas about ways in which the University could reduce expenses by conserving energy, using less office supplies, and taking advantage of technology, just to name a few. As we move into the new academic year, Southern's budget continues to face many challenges. Consequently, we continue to welcome your ideas on how to operate the university more efficiently and cost effectively.
Please submit your cost savings ideas at the following link: www.southernct.edu/yourideas. The University Budget and Planning Committee will continue to review all suggestions in light of our budgetary situation and will make recommendations to the administration on their implementation.
