HONOLULU (AP) — University of Hawaii students marched and hosted a sit-in Monday to protest anticipated budget cuts.
Students at the flagship Manoa campus were concerned the university might cut teaching assistants and take other actions affecting graduate courses.
UH Vice-chancellor for academic affairs Reed Dasenbrock said no teaching assistant jobs in the College of Natural Sciences will be cut in the spring semester.
He said all core courses will be offered in spring 2015 and there will be no negative impact on classes and degree pathways to graduation from budget decisions.
A rally organizer, graduate student Christie Wilcox, said Dasenbrock’s statement was reassuring, but students remain concerned with $2.5 million in proposed cuts and other budget uncertainties.
