I am glad that President Cohen seems optimistic about the school's future despite economic troubles. Although I see the need for cuts, I really hope that the School of Drama doesn't have to cut too many budgets or staff like is starting to be rumored. I feel we are a little under-funded sometimes anyway, so I hope Peter Cooke and Holcomb are able to balance things nicely, which I'm sure they will
Well, at least someone is. All I keep hearing around school is how we are really in for some rough times. I'm glad, though, that we have some very dedicated leaders, within the school and within the university that are determined to make things work. Peter seems to have some good ideas to trim the fat. I'm wondering though, what other unnecessary expenses can be eliminated within the school of drama.
