Academic Planning Committee Budget Hearing July 30
The APC hearing on proposed budget reductions is 2-5 p.m. July 30 (please note time change) at the Nebraska Union. The task of the APC is to review the Chancellor's proposed cuts in light of their probable impact on the university's academic mission and approve them or suggest other ways of meeting the budget reduction goal. To accomplish this task, the APC welcomes information from all who may be affected by the proposed reductions. A schedule is available for download. Another hearing is Sept. 18.

The Wellness Walks leave every Wednesday at noon from the south steps of the Nebraska Union. It’s a 10-minute walk to the garden market on Centennial Mall. Walkers can buy fresh produce and be back at the office in less than an hour. Read the full story in The Scarlet.
