Eastern Wyoming College president Dr. Lesley Travers released the following statement.

“Last night, we received news that we are now tasked with developing sustainable cuts rather than one-time cuts for this biennium. The plan for 10% cuts is due July 1.  A plan for a 20% cut is due July 15 and the community colleges are part of this cut. I will provide more information next week as it is received, and we will now be making cuts that involve people and positions. I will keep you abreast of these circumstances as I obtain more information. Please know these are very difficult times in the State of Wyoming and at Eastern Wyoming College.”
