On Thursday, April 26th the Iowa Board of Regents will meet at the University of Northern Iowa. Several organizations will convene a "Rally for the Facts" so that the community can voice concerns to the board about the Price Lab/Iowa's Research & Development School closure, program terminations, and faculty layoffs. The rally will be at 11:00 a.m. in front of Maucker Union. University of Northern Iowa United Faculty, Students United for Academics, UNI for Working Families, KPLO and the Iowa Chapter of the American Association of University Professors will all be present. The meeting will start outside the Union where community members, UNI faculty and students will express their concerns about BOR actions. The rally will then move inside Maucker Union to the Old Central Ballroom so participants can attend the BOR meeting.
