Financial Exigency Is Alive and Well in Idaho.
Flygare, Thomas J.
Phi Delta Kappan, v68 n7 p550-51 Mar 1987
Tenured faculty are normally terminated only for just cause. In "Milbouer v. Keppler," however, an Idaho district court upheld faculty members' discharge when Boise State University declared a financial exigency. Examination shows that this definition of financial exigency derived from budget reductions that affected small program enrollments rather than institutional viability. (CJH)
