I know many people are feeling anxious about the budget in light of reduced higher education funding, increased expenses and news in the headlines of universities facing financial challenges most recently by our sister campus Sonoma State. If this is you, please attend our budget forum tomorrow. 

The University Resources and Planning Committee (URPC) of the University Senate, in collaboration with the University Budget Office, will be holding a Budget Update & Open Forum for the Campus Community on February 6, 2025 from 11:30 - 1:00 pm in the SAC 131 The Banquet Room. Lunch will be served. 

The purpose of this forum is to introduce campus community members to budgeting concepts, update campus on the state of the budget (State of California, CSU, and Humboldt), and educate about the role and functions of the URPC. Questions can be submitted ahead of time at OAAVP@humboldt.edu. The presentation will be recorded and the PowerPoint slides and the recording will be distributed next week. The Q&A portion of the session will not be recorded. 

Looking forward to seeing you there.
