Redistribution of tuition money leaves courses cancelled - Tyler Williams, the Daily Nebraskan
Several departments are scrambling to cover an unexpected reallocation of funds. The political science and history departments, among others, are set to lose classes as a result of budget constraints. Departments have begun eliminating online classes in order to make budget ends meet, causing headaches for students and department chairpersons. The university had the policy of giving departments a portion of online tuition dollars in order to fund both online and in-person classes. Now, those funds are being fed into the larger University of Nebraska-Lincoln budget.
