PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 26 (UPI) -- Roman Catholic institution La Salle University issued a letter Tuesday that said it will lay off 23 employees as it faces lower freshman enrollment and budget deficits.
President Colleen M. Hanycz wrote that due to "decreasing enrollment, high costs, and an operating structure that could only be justified at a much larger institution" the institution has "separated with 23 members of our community." These employees include the college's spokesman, Jon Caroulis, and his boss, Karen Geus.
