I don’t think it’s a great idea to cut programs, but halting new enrollment and transfers might be ok. I don’t like the idea of leaving the students hanging by canceling their programs mid degree
If you’re in a program that is getting cut, let’s face it, it’s probably not something thar was going to result in a fruitful career anyway.
Take MSU Denver as an example, it’s not necessary to have a major in Chicano or Africana studies, they could just get a history or anthropology degree instead. Why be so specific at the Bachelor’s level when you’re only career outcome is to keep studying until you get a PhD and then go on to teach in that subject?
Also, I highly doubt anyone on Broadway has an MSU Denver BFA in Theatre…just to name a few.
