Similar situation here. I'm 2nd in seniority among full professors, 2nd in command administratively, and 4th is overall seniority. As long as they don't eliminate the program, I'm safe.
But this week the first possibility of a 5% salary cut was mentioned. I've been thinking for several weeks that I wouldn't be surprised about that. That would be disappointing, but not really that bad in comparison to people losing their jobs.
My greatest fear is that I don't think anyone knows where the bottom is. We aren't there yet.
