State and local education officials in Oklahoma preparing for the upcoming school year received a most unwelcome back-to-school present with word of a state revenue shortfall.
State financial officials ordered a 5-percent across-the-board cut in budget allocations to state agencies, which education officials warned could have both short- and long-term effects.
Both Oklahoma State University and the University of Oklahoma said Wednesday they anticipated the shortfall and made contingency plans that should spare students and faculty for now. But OU President David Boren said if shortfalls increase, that could lead to “disruptive” cuts.
