Fox News
The University of Arizona president is facing criticism over a $240 million budget shortfall that is leading to proposed cuts in student scholarships and instructor salaries.
"I do not trust the university with my well-being anymore," Megan Wong, a student senator in the pharmacy college, told the crowded meeting. "The university has made it loud and clear that they do not care about us."
Phyllis Brodsky, of the university's office of instruction and assessment, told Robbins that news of the shortfall has created uncertainty as she prepares to retire next year.
