Our deficit is $5.3 million. Deficits at Southern and Nicholls $400k and $200k respectively. Brought in $4 million more than Tech but spent $10 million more.

Can start by cutting Marlin’s salary. Oh sorry the basketball team is good this year.

On a scale of 1-10, I’d say it’s a 1.

At 10 million, a fot in a wind storm.

When you keep fishing in the same hole for money for salaries AND a stadium, and something like Covid comes along, this is what you get.

One has nothing to do with the other. The stadium project has raised corporate money and it's moving forward. The larger concern is our Bond Rating. With a number of campus projects that were funded through the sale of Bonds under Dr. Savoie, we simply don't have the capacity to much more because of the university debt limit.
