The statement, " The Board of Trustees’ proposed solution: Lay off teaching faculty" is incorrect. Due to the severity of the budget cuts and not knowing the results of the tax bill, CR needs to be prepared to take steps. One step MIGHT be laying off faculty. CRFO (the faculty union) requires formal notification of the POSSIBILITY of faculty layoffs, and IF that is to be one of the solutions, notice must be given by March 15. There are no contingency options with the union. Part of the budget solution is to engage everyone in finding solutions, to avoid the layoff of any employees at CR. This might well include layoff of administrators.
