With NU facing 'devastating' cuts, Kearneyites stand in support of universities through One Nebraska - TIFFANY STOIBER, Kearney Hub
With Nebraska universities facing large budget cuts, dozens of Kearney residents are “taking a stand” to support the University of Nebraska system through the One Nebraska Coalition. One Nebraska’s goal is to better educate Nebraskans about the value of the University of Nebraska system and advocate for stable public funding for the schools. Gov. Pete Ricketts has proposed budget cuts to the NU system, including a midyear cut of 2 percent and another cut of 4 percent for the 2018-2019 school year, which UNK Chancellor Doug Kristensen said would be “devastating,” at his budget presentation Monday.
