I guess they are focusing more on really big donors and less on the small fish who take years to cultivate but whose current donations don't pay for themselves. The alumni and development will probably be kept on through the October reunions.
On the food side, 3 chefs and 3 dieticians are being laid off.
almost all the jobs have an end date of 10/01/2025 (which is just over the 60 days required by the WARN filing)
if you look at the WARN filing linked above almost all of them have an effective date (last day of work) of 10/01/2025. I don't know how Stanford handles people during the WARN period but my last few employers essentially paid you for the 60 days, some had you work during that time and some did not.

Can you document this? A quick search didn’t show any mention of this. I don’t know that such layoffs would need to be in such a filing, but I would think so
WARN filing is required if 50 or more employees are involved - I could see the layoffs occuring without being "documented" if the #s were below 50, plus the timelines are different
some companies are very good at playing the "avoid doing a WARN filing thing", laying off just under the reportable limit (50 people at one location or some percentage of the workforce in that location), spacing them far enough apart in time to not be reportable, having enough locations to get under the reportable limit (e.g., layoff people in SF and SJ and treat them as separate events)
