You asked, we answered.

We heard from so many of you during our Facebook Retrenchment Race to the Bottom— asking what you can do about these policies, looking for contact information for the various boards of trustees, sharing your experiences with retrenchment…

The information wasn’t the easiest to find. But, you have a right to make your voice heard on this and other issues impacting higher education. 

The final five in the Retrenchment Race to the Bottom were Wright State University, University of Akron, University of Toledo, Youngstown State University, and Central State University.  Contact information for the boards of trustees at these universities can be found below.
