Layoff News
The San Francisco Business Times reports the University of California, Berkeley, is eliminating 200 additional jobs in a continued effort to reduce spending.
According to the report, Chancellor Robert Birgeneau notified staff and faculty about the impending cuts in a letter this week. “We cannot continue with our current administrative structures and operations and be the best run public university in the country,” Birgeneau wrote.
The positions will be eliminated through layoffs, retirement, and attrition. It’s expected to save the university in the neighborhood of $20 million.
U.C. Berkeley is striving to save money after the state of California was forced to drastically reduce funding because of the recession. Since last year, the university has eliminated 600 positions.

Testimonial of the Week
What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
