" No this is not you you would hope not to be talking about all your albums and -- cycle we've gotten into recently."

" There are those who are suggesting that this is amply paid any kind of a game of poker -- you will that the University of Georgia and cars out on the table they -- moving money into the middle -- And and bluffing if you would all not at him powers that be whether they're in the regions the universe system or the Georgia legislature -- point authorities -- armor Collins regarding current content to prove and somebody not violate -- programs how many jobs intact. Playing poker you are a lot."

" Well you know here's your -- Internet -- we were asked very directly by the -- to prepare. A realistic response. To move up pretty outlandish request from that the sub committees in the house and senate."

" To make some pretty drastic reductions to the system the whole process was sixty million dollars. A on -- hundred million dollars that we already reduced from our budget the last two fiscal years. And so we sat down and chance are basically gave us some pretty simple structure citizen -- tuition increases and no formula increased. And in the pay cuts it would really happen how would we are -- a little. And so we sat -- the course of 48 hours. And turning to realization that if we were gonna protect. And maintain what we would the hardest core function of university. What she's sort of start to function of the and search mission of campus and -- outward from their. What you find only on the outside of that or are the things -- it's not to say that they're not important it's not to say that they're not needed. And very valuable assets of the university. But they are outside the core mission and little draconian cut of -- size."

" They're the castings that we would not have to do in order to estimate that require."

" To emerge again -- president more than the men and YouTube regularly -- and I'm sure the morning talking about these the ethnic area. I've got -- for agent or operative in people screaming and there the state botanical garden. I mean isn't looking at it again and its worst case scenario we're not there yet -- emerges and again this is a proposal. And I'm point die some of this -- happens -- remain not. I doubt things that jumped out at many. I propose. And shutting down if you will that they can't radio station there and anyone point out a -- a couple of campus radio they just. The TV station while the Warren."

" Well it's it's up. It's functional things that our state supported the TV -- imagination is all being supported by other you know a researcher operation. So those are not straight arms sales -- that are that are invested in that station in TV's question -- research published."

" The media a radio station is a university function that receives state funding support -- force sort of different from farming standpoint. You know it's it's pretty hard to sit here and -- imagine. Not having the radio station that is there's a huge tool. And and huge asset in the university's capacity to communicate with the would be it would a community around around us."

" But when you compare. That function of that. Radio station with the function of senior -- track faculty in our classroom doing search and teaching our students."

" You get back to this notion of what's the core and what's that what sort of the article."

" people imagined I mean we did talk about the things -- impact directly here and act as though he's already are in Jordan you're talking about obviously a wider to the dateline for elderly with an article in every county in the -- not mean I've been slow down and angry out of longer and main idea and are outdoors and every other corner of the eight."

" Only look --"

" Yeah it's it's it would. Because those cast changes would radically changed the the fate of the University of Georgia crossed the whole state you know we're we're a land grant institution we are the flagship. Of the state we are dealing grandest vision for the for the state and while we have things like. Four H and cooperative in agriculture experiment stations and other things that reach across the state. Beyond. Just a 35000 students that are here on this campus. And it is what distinguishes us from so many other institutions within the state and across the country. And it's it's it's almost it took us probably a full -- to finally. Grasp the concept of what we are being asked to do and what it would take to get better. But I keep going back to the ocean and start with a core function of the instructional research on -- campus -- move from the higher."

" You armies of the things. Like -- at and T and corporate national."

" Tim Burton senior vice president for finance and administration at the University of Georgia again and the ever looking -- million dollars from next year's -- Iran yesterday when a Democrat from out of Atlanta Clayton County. Riverdale. And none is enough we were talking about in funding and I'm now -- And education funding in reference these lorries how many evening upper level administrators. The University of Georgia are making in this particular budget climate angle -- president Michael Adams -- 100 dollar or am I. Many IV are you off included I believe in the -- figure range well into the eight figure range. Two per here. I -- hours at a time when you're talking about really looking at the ability. A -- and non tenured faculty members and and Dodi and several other workers."

" I think you can if you if you step back from an anti personal a little bit and look at -- magnitude of what a sixteen million dollar figure represents."

" You could you could reduce. A lot of those salaries that they're talking about Bob Warren tunes are 10% pick a number."

" And you wouldn't even begin to scratch."

" What it takes to get to sixty million dollar figure. So -- so you know it's it's 11 way to sort of pick on -- small component of the university. And -- that's the way to solve it but I think you can do American look at the numbers. You first realize -- net that won't even start to get you there. And then what are you gonna -- to those faculty members across campus at -- you know sixty years. -- world class researchers. Or or excellent resented being here for thirty years. Oregon say they should be rewarded for the hard work they've done as well just because they happen America competitive salary."

" I don't think there earlier and as at town this weekend looked at what he million dollars in the budget you're directed -- Errol Davis a room. No to an increased. And this is The Who has at least raise -- 70%. Tuition increase their attention to his -- always do we will I'm. -- increased so I guess there are some level that would not that they need to somebody's got."

" Well I think you know that's that's speculation on this point that a lot of people making and marketing at I can't -- yet because it's a two step process. The legislature doesn't -- border region assistant. And so what was shares soared responding to was a little slant. Reduction that the legislature was talking about making two appropriation is given to the border regions. So first you've got to define what those reductions with a firearm would create. From the legislature. Without any other considerations at that point."

" And then I think the circus that would be he wants those appropriations committee to the border regions and they would disarm how they split that money up among the thirty bodies Asians. In concert with whatever tuition policy they were prepared to approve a couple."

" To -- in -- president or finance and administration. The University of Georgia. Any thing now what -- everything. Mitigate --"

" What do we get done have a change of heart. Little legislative leadership but they did they can decide after seeing this."

" The impact of such a reduction to our education they can decide that."

" Indication in general and higher education in particular or so important. -- economic well being of the state."

" That there's got to be another solution."

" And me and whatever that those solution is. They would -- a -- widows -- alternatives and and in particular route as opposed to some pretty. Dramatic reductions to our education fund."

" When you mean the aid budgets from various vantage point where else -- they."

" Well. It did say they didn't have a real situation there are real problem with with a shortfall in the budget. But they're -- a lot of suggestions about but on both the revenue side and other expenditures are on how to deal would have I guess all I'm saying it is."

" If we as a state. Are prepared to make the education of our young people all the way through college."

" The primary. Priority of what we do this state and in the investments we make -- what limited money we have. End acting calls into question. What what do we stand for what is our primary priority we will -- it. -- Of those bills some people aren't very."

" And are well go on -- not -- as you well know the University of Georgia that it entered into this collaboration with the Medical College of Georgia framework are important medical news that he and training."

" This -- at a temporary location here and Adams eventually a lot of the grounds of the navy you'll be into the vacant navy -- why does this. But -- mean a better effort moving forward."

" Well the one. The -- one heartening thing that happened last week was when the answer was arrested assigned to the -- what's some of the two or three priority areas and he had. One of those three priority areas was the continued funding. Necessary to fulfill this partnership with Nancy unique the governor included even in this tight budget. The governor included additional funding for that partnership in his fiscal year eleven appropriations. And the chance for signaled the appropriate committees. That that was but that was his top three priorities. That's that's at least heartening that even -- all of this difficult special order here. There seems to steal the a major priority from the governor and -- both stepped we need to maintain the funding necessary to fulfill part of."
