UAlbany Budget Updates

Message from President Philip on Tue, Nov 25, 2008

To All Faculty and Staff:

Over the next several weeks, Interim Provost Susan Phillips, Vice President for Finance & Business Kathryn Lowery, John Giarrusso, Associate Vice President for Facilities Management and I will hold a series of "Town Hall Meetings" in various campus locations. The purpose of these informal meetings is to respond to faculty and staff questions about the University's budget, energy conservation initiatives and other issues that may be of concern.

Please note that the State's budget process continues to be fluid.
While we are unlikely to have final numbers available, we plan to provide a status report, offer insights about what we might expect in the coming months, and learn more about your questions and concerns.

Meetings are scheduled as follows:

Friday December 5; 3:00p-4:00p
Life Sciences, X-Ray Optic Conference Room, Room 1143

Monday December 8; 2:30p-3:30p
University Hall, Room 110

Tuesday December 9; 11:45a-12:45p
Downtown Campus, Arthur Levitt Room

Thursday December 11; 10:30a-11:30a
Humanities Room 354

Thursday December 11; 1:30p-2:30p
East Campus, George Building, Room C3

We look forward to seeing you and to sharing our thoughts about these important issues.

Sincerely yours,

George M. Philip
Interim President
