IUP to cut 52 positions — 10 by furlough

Indiana University of Pennsylvania will eliminate 52 positions – most through attrition but 10 through furloughs – to help the state university reduce a $7.75 million budget deficit in the 2011-12 fiscal year.

Ten managers and staff members – five full-time and five part-time – have been furloughed through the process, said IUP spokeswoman Michelle Fryling. None of the furloughed staffers are faculty members and all have been notified, she said.
