Johnson greeted those that
walked into the Jan. 19 budget
meeting. "Help yourself to food
and drinks," he said. "It's in the
budget."
The first budget meeting of
the 2004-05 year happened
Nov. 4, 2004, when aspects of
the budget were laid out. The
Jan. 19 meeting was to discuss
what has transpired since.
"This meeting is to show how
the budget process does or

"These are three unrelated things, but
they affect my staff and students,"
Lundquist said.
Moss left so her husband could pursue
a job opportunity in Colorado as profes
sional golf consultant for Dick's Sporting
Goods. "To ask her to leave was very diffi
cult," said husband Rich Moss, but "it was
just a good time."
Moss ran orientation projects like
CHAOS and Avanti, supervised the Office
of Student Involvement and Leadership,
headed the major spring events surround
ing graduation, and addressed general
student concerns as they arose.
She worked at Guilford for four and a
half years and was promoted three times.
Moss retained her most recent position for
the last six months.
"She has kind of hit her ceiling," said
Lundquist. "Career-wise, she would have
left soon anyway."
"Obviously, it's not the greatest time in
the semester for me to leave," said Moss.

Johnson began his presenta-

The proposed 2005-06 capital
budget is $4.4 million.
"The bottom line," said
Johnson, "is to reach a bal
anced budget and have a drop
in endowment reliance." The
goal for financial equilibrium is
2006.
"The budget has successfully
absorbed the revenues and
costs of the strategic plan," said
the President.
By the proposed budget, tradi-
tional students will experience a
5.9% increase in tuition. Current
tuition, including room and
board, is $26,600, rising to
