- means fewer study places and thus fewer students in Lower Saxony,
- means fewer jobs in Lower Saxony,
- means less research in Lower Saxony,
- means less innovation in Lower Saxony.

We say: No - enough is enough, no cuts in education!
LHK, WKN and non-university research institutions warn urgently against cuts in higher education - here is the statement (in German).
