| Abstract: | The purpose of this survey was to solicit from state-level agencies with a possible role in the review of existing academic programs a straightforward response to the question of program elimination and reallocation of resources. State-level agencies in 37 states were surveyed concerning their activity in program elimination and consolidation. The main finding is that although there is some activity in the area of elimination and consolidation of programs, either there have been no cost savings or reallocation or the state cannot identify the amounts. Those programs eliminated tend to be low productivity programs. |
