Status quo not good enough for higher ed
Everyone鈥檚 state budget is going to focus on K-12 education funding this year, because the governor and legislators campaigned on promises to meet the constitutional mandate, and because the state Supreme Court has demanded it. That鈥檚 understandable, but a solitary focus on K-12, without addressing both early and higher education needs, is not in the state鈥檚 best interest.
