The state Board of Regents, calling it “a dark day,” today ordered state colleges and universities to close for one week and furlough all employees for five days in an effort to save $10 million as ordered by the governor.

The regents also canceled summer school classes until after the July 1 start of the new fiscal year and told school presidents to defer all non-emergency maintenance, equipment purchases and travel.
