Four years ago, President Edward Hundert set out to create 'the world's most powerful learning environment' at Case Western Re serve Univer sity.
These days, the humbled Hundert and his restive school are in a world of hurt.
The faculty is angry. Revenue is flat, and feuding alumni have closed their checkbooks. Money that the university counted on to help pay for Hundert's bold plans isn't there. Hundert and Case face a $40 million deficit this year in a budget of about $800 million, and more red ink is projected for next year. Case's 5,300 workers are on edge, having already endured $17 million in budget slashing."
