Abstract
The pandemic laid bare the financial challenges many regional state universities had been facing for some time. This article offers a case window into William Paterson University, a regional state University in New Jersey, that was able to navigate a difficult, but necessary reduction in the faculty size and come out the other side much stronger and on a positive trajectory. Central to this was a mix of science and art. Its components, and the ultimate outcome, are described in this article.
