which we voted to affirm our support for the recommendations developed by the General Faculty Financial Recalibration Committee under Dr. Gary Rhoades leadership (see attached). We also ask that you consider the analyses and recommendations put forward by
both Dr. Price Fishback and Dr. Rhoades’ committee as you work with the Board of Regents to set the University on a path forward. Fiscal and strategic discipline is the central tenet of their recommendations, with an underlying goal of reducing the uncertainty
each unit faces as they plan for future activities.</span></p>
