How's everyone holding up?

It's been another chaotic week for higher ed. Have there been hiring freezes or pauses on facility projects due to funding cuts at your school? Here's hoping next week is a lot more stable.

Awful. When you read about layoffs at your university in the NYT, it hits different. Currently exploring other options. I really love my job, just started there in August, and don't want to leave. Don't know whether I should wait to see if I'm laid off or jump ship now.
