Johns Hopkins University announced Thursday it's laying off over 2,000 employees amid budget cuts made by the Trump administration.
The largest layoff in the school's history, 2,200 people will be laid off, and then another 100 will be subject to reduced schedules.
A spokesman for Johns Hopkins told USA Today that affected workers will get at least 60 days notice before being terminated, and that a large portion of those being let go are working abroad as the university specialized in research projects funded by USAID, which has been drastically cut by Trump.
The university had been receiving the largest amount of federal research financing of all American universities and is still the largest employer in the state of Maryland.
