Most recent news

Here is a link to the Daily Wildcat article on the Budget Cut hearing last Thursday:

Other budget meetings will be held across the state, including one on the U of A campus. It will be essential that U of A students show up in large numbers not only to protest futher cuts (there is a huge amount of money on the table to be cut next year), but also to show support for the legislators who have been working so hard to save our state.

Check out this excellent Daily Star article on what, exactly, the budget cuts will mean for us locally: http://www.azstarnet.com/allheadlines/279167.php

K-12 suffers, too: http://www.tucsoncitizen.com/daily/frontpage/109527.php
