Chicago State University Responds to $600 Million Funding Fix - Tom Schuba, NBC Chicago

Chicago State University said Friday that while the approval of a $600 million spending bill to keep Illinois' public universities and colleges open through the summer is appreciated, it's not enough. “The entire CSU family appreciates the support of lawmakers who voted to provide these much needed funds in order to help universities continue effective operations,” the statement reads. “It should be noted however that this funding measure represents only a portion of the appropriation CSU and its sister universities are owed by the state. The amount provided is insufficient in solving the broader crisis the budget impasse has created.” http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/ward-room/Chicago-State-University-Responds-to-600-Million-Funding-Fix-376784871.html
