over the next two-year budget cycle.
Budgets are already set for this fiscal year and the next. But Purdue says
it could be $70 million short over the next biennium if state appropriations stay flat and there is no tuition increase.
Executive vice president for business and finance Al Diaz says Purdue has already cut positions and withheld pay increases.

Diaz said the school will review programs, compensation and other issues over the next five months.
