Committee to talk on budget impasse impact on Illinois higher education - JG-TC

State Senate Higher Education Committee members will talk about the impact the budget impasse has had on higher education across the state at Eastern Illinois University. State Senator Pat McGuire and other state senators will mull over the issues that have arisen in higher education as result of the impasse from 10:30 a.m. until 1 p.m. Monday in the Martin Luther King University Union Grand Ballroom. According to a press release, nearly 90 percent of state spending to things like K through 12 education has been committed because of court rulings and governor’s actions excluding some things like higher education funding. http://jg-tc.com/jg-tc/committee-to-talk-on-budget-impasse-effect-to-higher-education/article_69aa659f-b921-50d9-b04b-0ffc9dd1403c.html
