Connecticut’s Board of Regents for Higher Education has identified 24 positions that will be eliminated as it puts in place a new, combined management structure for the state’s university and community-college systems, The Hartford Courant reported. The positions are mostly high-paying administrative jobs, including assistant vice chancellors and human-resource and finance administrators, and the total savings are projected to be more than $4.7-million. The job eliminations are part of a restructuring enacted last summer, which created the Board of Regents to oversee the four state universities, the 12 community colleges, and the online Charter Oak State College.
