Yes, it's been a while

In the latest news:
Paltry turnout for the ABOR meeting on tuition: Some say it's apathy, but Sallygradstudent thinks it's weariness. How many meetings have we attended and been ignored?

The Tucson Citizen does a huge article on Provost Meredith Hay's first year at U of A:

Here's what we can't figure out: "The changes are already being launched, and by the fall, UA will look markedly different. There will be new schools and departments created by mergers and consolidations, and - courtesy of those massive state cuts - larger class sizes and more graduate assistants filling in for unfunded faculty lines."

We've heard that graduate student positions are being cut and class sizes increased.

What have you heard?
