The latest attempts to tame the Illinois budget deficit — and potential effects on state pensions — will be discussed by experts in economics and retirement planning at the Fall Forum of the UIC chapter of the State Universities Annuitants Association. Panelists include Jeffrey R. Brown, the Lakonishok endowed professor of business and dean of the Gies College of Business, UIUC; Lee Bridges, retirement specialist, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois; and John Prochaska, retirement planning counselor. An informal discussion will follow. Free and open to all members of the campus community.
