Interested in having Financial Transparency at the University?

submitted by jacobsn@augsburg.edu

The university is facing a financial crisis in the coming year, and all aspects of the university experience and operations will be impacted in one way or another.
Who is making the decisions, and how?
What’s the full scope of the necessary changes?
Will budget cuts and changes be equitably shared?

These questions have been asked by a number of working groups at faculty and staff levels, yet many remain unanswered. Augsburg’s values call us to be informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders. Unwillingness from university leadership to have a transparent budget process is an affront to these values.

Join the concerned staff, faculty, and university community in demanding transparency in the budget cuts and changes. All members of the university and community are invited to show their support of this petition for transparency.

Read and sign the petition here.
