They've thrown out almost all contracts, (some department programs actually run almost entirely on them).  Pre-registration for the upcoming academic year finalized yesterday and students have been shocked to discover the paucity of course offerings and limited course sections (that were a natural consequence of the former).  This mass exodus of contract profs thus is going to engender a mass exodus of students.  It is just dawning on some folks in the faculty that this was the plan all along - to dismantle the university.  I knew this too, but deluded myself into thinking they wouldn't actually carry it out.  Coming to think of it, the 9% the gov't puts toward our state university is probably just enough to balance the budget.  So this was the plan all along.  They've got three years to try it before they are chased from power.
