A move that will help reduce costs in 2010 by $2.7 million. Although the cost savings are significant, the focus is being put on the issue that the merger will, "... build on intellectual connections and enhance potential opportunities for students and faculty members." The reorganization plan will merge the existing Arts and Design programs. It appears that Departments will be disestablished while Schools will be established, one example listed in the press release is the disestablishment of the Department of Dance while they intend to establish a School of Dance. It seems that it is coming down to a merger of administrative positions.
