UNH president: Salaries, benefits targeted

Clynton Namuo reports in the Union Leader that UNH President Mark Huddleston is targeting salries and benefits:

Another round of belt-tightening is coming to the University of New Hampshire and salaries are likely to be first up, according to a letter President Mark Huddleston issued yesterday to the university community.

The letter offers few specifics, but makes clear that UNH is feeling the pinch and because of that, expenses must be cut and money made. Huddleston's letter says UNH's revenue sources are declining or stagnating, while costs are not.

"A central challenge will be salary and benefits, the largest drivers of our budget," Huddleston said in the letter, adding, "I expect any increase in salaries will be modest at best."
