>Rutgers to freeze salaries for all employees
Rutgers University has announced it will freeze salaries for its 13,000 employees, canceling some pay raises that were to take effect next month. School officials say the move will save $30 million and offset some of the $46.6 million in state funding cut from its budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1. Without the freeze, Chief Budget Officer Philip Furmanski said in a note to staff Thursday, the university would have to “lay off large numbers.” (Conaboy, Gannett)
