Kansas State University is planning to announce additional administrative furloughs later this week.
An 8 a.m. virtual town hall is scheduled for Friday. K-State President Richard Myers and Vice President for Human Capital Services Jay Stephens will be available. It will be available via YouTube Live. Access will require a K-State eID to view the session, available on the Human Capital Services website.
It’s unclear how the next round of furloughs might impact fall classes, nor how deep the cuts may go, but could be as high as 10 percent in some of the higher end positions.
The university has already furloughed 430 employees since May due to COVID-19 financial impacts. Early estimates were that the pandemic would cause an estimated $35 million in revenue losses by July 31st.
