SUNY Potsdam announces major restructuring to close budget deficit - WWNY

SUNY Potsdam is taking drastic measures to stop bleeding millions of dollars each year. “We need to find a way to spend $9 million less each year,” President Dr. Suzanne Smith said in address to the campus Tuesday morning. She said there will be no help from Albany to fill the gap. “There will be no bailouts,” she said. “This problem is ours and ours alone to solve.” To do that, she said, college officials will be looking at possibly closing 14 academic programs, an academic building, and parts of a college dormitory. Only 6 percent of the student population is enrolled in those 14 programs, she said.
