Students will continue to lose with more sections cut and less access to educational opportunity. It would be beneficial if administrative salaries/benefits would be reduced proportionately according to revenue loss and section cuts. However, one can be assured that will never happen.
Students and taxpayers are the losers. (-269 sections gone and more to come)
