<p>as a result of budget cuts SUNY Albany suspends new majors in classics, some languages, and theatre… 
 </p>
<p>“As part of the plan for reducing costs in the Colleges and Schools, admission has been suspended for all NEW undergraduate and graduate students to five program areas  Classics, French, Italian, Russian, and Theatre  pending the outcomes of the remainder of the consultation process, including comment and discussion with faculty and the University Senate. This means that unless an exception is granted, undergraduate students  who are not already a major in one of the program areas under discussion  cannot declare or apply to be a major in one of these disciplines at this time. Also, unless an exception is granted, students who are not already a minor cannot declare a minor in these program areas either. At the graduate level, no new applications for admission to any program in these areas will be accepted.”</p>
