Funding restored for Bitterroot College - DAVID ERICKSON, Ravalli Republic

A clerical snafu that caused a $50,000 budget crisis at the Bitterroot College, and which put many student scholarships in limbo and raised tensions between administrators in Hamilton and at the University of Montana for several months, has finally been discovered and resolved. The problem emerged just before fall semester, when officials at the Bitterroot College, a two-year community college program whose budget is administered by the University of Montana’s Office of the Provost, were told that they were facing a budget shortfall. http://www.ravallirepublic.com/news/local/education/article_3a099ef0-5477-11e2-b2a0-0019bb2963f4.html
