The Paine Project 
It is interesting that Paine College is announcing $2.4M in cuts. These budget cuts are significant, and I would not be surprised if the entire Board of Trustees were apprised or involved in the planning of these cuts. By the way, no one has seen the plan related to the cuts. Are the $2.4M in cuts will be incurred in this fiscal year or spread of a number of years? Also, how will this impact the delivery of academic programs and administrative services?
However, there is no discussion about growing revenues. The Office of the President, Institutional Advancement and the Board of Trustees are responsible for raising money for most higher education institutions. At Paine College, the amount of non-Government contribution has been decreasing during Bradley’s administration. The Board raises very little, the Office of the President raises even less and Institutional Advancement under Brandon Brown’s watch appears to be enjoying the party as much as anyone.
With a President that rarely makes any public appearances and a Board that is sleepwalking, $2.4M (if this is truly an accurate number) in cuts would not be necessary if private contributions were growing. This is obviously not a concern for the current leadership, and will never be a concern for them. After all, who is going to hold them accountable?
