The University of Nebraska-Lincoln will eliminate vacant positions, move some employees to alternative funding sources, and reduce administrative salary costs in an effort to trim $10.8 million from its budget before the next fiscal year.
More than 50 construction projects are part of the university's effort to renew and replace aging buildings on its Lincoln campus.
