NEWARK — The University of Delaware has laid off 122 employees this week in its latest measure to get a potential $288 million budget shortfall under control.
Departments that were most affected by layoffs were those where operations have slowed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, including facilities maintenance, construction project management and conference services, according to university spokesperson Andrea Boyle Tippett.
The layoffs represent 3.5% of the university’s 3,570 full-time staff members. UD’s 1,330 faculty members are exempt from these cuts, and negotiations are still underway with unions, including the UD chapter of the American Association of University Professors.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
97% of these people vote Democrat anyway. That’s what you idiots get!
The president of Delaware Tech makes over $250,000 a year. The highest paid employee in the state of Delaware. A community college. Yeah let that sink in.
