Rutgers-New Brunswick terminated 37 part-time lecturers this month. These lecturers taught approximately 100 classes in the School of Arts and Sciences. The university cited reasons such as lack of funding or no continuing need for the positions. Faculty unions called the layoffs "absurd." They claim the budget shortfall is fictional.
