Just a hunch, but I'd imagine if UA is canceling classes, everyone else will start with that and evaluate where that puts them in the coming days/weeks.
By not holding classes we are effectively furloughing 70 people a month. It sucks to shrink but I am hopeful we will all be able to hold onto our jobs. I've run into a handful of new hires on OE lately.

Not hiring for a year would shrink the list by 6-7%.
The airline could easily shrink 10% in this debacle now. Parking all the E190's, 767's, some 757's and deferring 787/max return.
The 737 and baby bus fleet needs heavy maintenance anyways.
