From the Editor: Not Too Late to Change
I just shook my head as I compared the two situations. This in-plant should have made drastic changes a year ago when it first noticed it was deep in the red. Like San Diego State, it should have sought new applications to replace declining ones like offset, invested in digital equipment and cut staff. It should have reexamined its rates and then raised them. Even a small increase would have added up.
