"I think it is a good thing."

Micky Pahosky, Nursing

"Tuition went up right? Why are they getting their pay cut?"

Ester Chapman, Math Instructor

"We all knew it was coming, so I'm not surprised. We all got 3 percent raises recently, so this wasn't surprising."

Benji Taylor, Undecided

"It's probably a bad thing for teachers, but it's good for students."

Tinna Dove, Accounting Technology

"If we stopped babysitting the rest of the world, then we wouldn't have to make these cuts."
