How will SUNY ESF’s budget deficit impact the Adirondacks: What does this mean for local conservation?
SUNY ESF faces an $8 million budget deficit and plans a five-year stability strategy, including $335,000 cuts to forest land budgets and 38 staff reductions. Despite financial pressures, the college aims to grow Adirondack programmes like the Timbuctoo Institute. No individual Adirondack property cuts are planned, while ongoing conservation efforts and educational activities continue across the region under the new plan.
