UofL implements temporary hiring freeze amid Trump's executive orders

The University of Louisville has implemented a hiring freeze affecting all full-time faculty and staff until July 15, 2025, due to President Donald Trump's executive orders.
The freeze is expected to last until July 15 and aims to manage financial uncertainties related to federal funding cuts that could reduce UofL's NIH funding by $20 million to $23 million.
UofL President Kim Schatzel noted that the freeze is proactive in ensuring a balanced budget amid changes in federal assistance and research grants, mirrored by similar actions at other universities.
The university is also suspending departmental research incentive funds and urging faculty to limit expenditures on individual research incentive funds due to potential financial impacts from federal policies.
