SOUTH BEND — About 10 administrative positions are expected to be eliminated this summer in Ivy Tech Community College’s newly merged north central/northwest region, according to Chancellor Thomas Coley.
The positions have been determined and the individuals who hold those jobs have been notified, but details have not yet been publicly released. The layoffs are expected to occur by mid-July.
“These are steps we are taking in light of being underfunded, without jeopardizing the quality of services we are providing to our students,” Coley said in an interview Friday. There are no plans for faculty or staff layoffs at this time, he said.
The administrative reductions are part of Ivy Tech’s response to financial woes, including a budget deficit that now stands at $68 million statewide.
