30% cut means no more Vietnamese classes for UT.

<p>The Asian Studies department had a budget cut of 30% and Vietnamese was the only language completely removed. They cut from other Asian languages, but since Vietnamese only had one professor, the entire language was cut. (We have one professor that teaches an accelerated and non-accelerated class) It was not because of the students or the professor, simply budget. The Department Chair of Asian Studies is open to talk to anyone interested. In the future, if the budget increases, we might have VTN again. He’d love to continue it, but the budget is the big factor. The Department Chair and the Dean of Liberal Arts will be meeting on Wednesday, so let’s make sure they know how much we support Vietnamese language classes!</p>
