Gov. Timothy M. Kaine of Virginia is asking three leading public universities to cut 7.5 percent from their state-appropriated budgets in order to deal with a projected $641-million revenue shortfall, according to The Daily Progress, a newspaper in Charlottesville, Va. The governor, a Democrat, has asked nearly all state agencies to cut their budgets by 5 percent, but bigger cutbacks will be expected at the College of William & Mary, the University of Virginia, and Virginia Tech. For UVa, the cuts would amount to more than $11.5-million. The governor has requested plans for the cuts by September 10. —JJ Hermes
