Brittain said the college used money it had on reserve to compensate for the initial 4 percent budget continued from Page 9 notfillingthesefivevacancies, the business school can put the money it would have spent on cut in October, but now it only has $20,000 in reserve funds. "We're'pretty much wiped out," he said.

Brittain said the U still plans to lobby for funding to renovate the business school, a measure that did not pass in the legislative session last spring. Brittain said the U might bond for the renovation and the construction project could act as an economic stimulus because of the number of jobs it would add to the state. Although the magnitude of the cut is uncertain and might not be determined until after the legislative session, unless a special session is called, administrators have asked colleges to prepare now for the impending cuts. Raymond Tymas-Jones, dean of the College of Fine Arts, said the college is looking into different scenarios for cuts. "Each one could be very different," he said. "It is looking at each situation and trying to achieve the required amount without decimating the quality of the programs, which is an extraordinary challenge." Aside from not hiring and consolidating programs, colleges and departments are looking for other practical ways to cut costs. The department of communication has identified ways to save, including cutting unused phone lines, discontinuing voice mail services on faculty phones and encouraging e-mail use, reducing travel budgets and reworking teaching loads so that the departments won't. have to cut curriculum even if they can't hire as many faculty, according to an e-mail that went out to faculty. Pershing said the U has not frozen hiring in some departments where filling new positions is critical. Although there will be no salary increases, he said administrators are working to prevent any kind of salary decrease for faculty, which would occur across the board. "That's so negative for morale," Pershing said. "We're trying to be as sensitive as possible to the human factor." r.mcconkie@ chronicle.utah.edu Getting engaged?

However, in order to catch the burglars, Folsom said he has directed patrol units to watch the parking lots more closely, particularly the locations that have had heavy concentrations of thefts, including the West Village apartments and Residence Halls. "We can't station an officer (at the lots), but we are making our patrols as frequent as we can," said Sgt. Dennis North, head of campus security. Since two officers left the U Police, there are only four officers to patrol the entire campus during the graveyard shift, said CpL Doug Alkire. Folsom said a passer-by who notices something suspicious and reports it to the police will likely be the person who stops the thieves. m.mcfall@ chronicle.utah.edu Researchers are evaluating an investigational medication to see if it effectively treats constipation.
