BATON ROUGE - Southern University's system president said proposed cuts to their budget could break the SU System next year.
Dr. Ronald Mason said Friday the Baton Rouge campus was already working on plans for a projected $8 million in cuts in next year's budget, only to find out they may now have to shoulder a total of $24 million in reductions.
The Jindal administration's proposed budget for next year includes as much as $383 million in higher education cuts. Southern's share of the budget would drop from the current $51 million in revenue they're receiving to $17 million for the entire system.
