Since HC is cancelled, should the wise course of action be to cancel everything and focus on supporting academic and residential programming? How can we best support the inevitable financial strain?

Per the official statement from SACS: Johnson C. Smith is on probation for twelve months for failure to comply with Comprehensive Standard 3.10.1 Which shows that the institution's recent financial history demonstrates financial stability (Financial stability) and Comprehensive Standard 3.10.3 meaning that the institution exercises appropriate control over all its financial resources (Control of finances). The SACSCOC Board authorized a Special Committee to visit the institution. The president insists that there was some error to the financial documentation that was forwarded to SACS (a fireable offense) and that there was a footnote that was added by the auditors (why did they feel the need to add it?). Additionally, if you have given money to Smith you receive a copy yearly of the President's report. Over the past four years, we have not received a Balance Sheet that goes along with that document. Although it is acknowledged that it is a standard practice (it has been done for over 30 years that way) to have that documentation as part of the reports to give to anyone considering giving to the University. The University PR office claims that the balance sheet is in the President's Reports. If anyone can find said balance sheets in an official university publication over for the past five years, please forward that info as a link.
