It has been confirmed today that 532 will lose their jobs, amounting to 7.4 percent of the workforce.

They include professors, administrators and support staff. The first 209 will be fired arbitrarily next week.

The rector describes it as ‘a huge loss of knowledge and competencies.’

We have not yet heard how the music department will be reduced. Let us know if you are affected.
