Hiring and Firing News

Gary Forsee, president of the University of Missouri system, announced a systemwide hiring freeze earlier this week, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Wilberforce University, the oldest African-American university in the country, announced last week that it will be forced to slash jobs and salaries to combat a $2.8-million deficit, the Dayton Business Journal reports. Meanwhile, the Associated Press reports that Oral Roberts University will eliminate 100 jobs, or about 10 percent of its workforce, just days after it reached a nearly $450,000 separation agreement with Richard Roberts, the university’s ex-president, who resigned over a spending controversy.
