The LWVWV has sent a letter (attached) to President Gee, the Provost, and the Board of Governors opposing proposed cuts to faculty, staff, degrees, and (in some cases) entire departments at WVU. As stated in the opening lines of the letter:
*The League of Women Voters of West Virginia (LWVWV) opposes the cuts proposed for the faculty, staff, degrees, and course offerings of West Virginia University (WVU). We also oppose the punitive manner inwhich these cuts are being implemented and the obvious efforts to downplay the adverse impacts on theuniversity, the community, and the state.*
Until at least September 15, WVU faculty, staff, students, alumni, and community members need to write letters or attend any public events on these issues. The impacts of the WVU cuts will be felt not just within WVU, or the Morgantown area, but will ripple throughout the state of West Virginia.
Contact information: The Office of the Provost can be reached at provost@mail.wvu.edu The Office of the President at presidentsoffice@mail.wvu.edu The Special Assistant to the BOG at valerie.lopez@mail.wvu.edu
*We urge all LWVWV members to make their voices heard on these important issuesimmediately*.
