Forbes: University of Florida eliminates computer science department, increases athletic budgets. Hmm.
Submitted by J.W. Bizzaro; posted on Monday, April 23, 2012

An article by Steven Salzberg:
"Wow, no one saw this coming. The University of Florida announced this past week that it was dropping its computer science department, which will allow it to save about $1.7 million. The school is eliminating all funding for teaching assistants in computer science, cutting the graduate and research programs entirely, and moving the tattered remnants into other departments.
[...]
"Meanwhile, the athletic budget for the current year is $99 million, an increase of more than $2 million from last year. The increase alone would more than offset the savings supposedly gained by cutting computer science."
