NU to seek increase in state aid for next biennium after absorbing recent cuts - CHRIS DUNKER, Lincoln Journal Star

The University of Nebraska will ask lawmakers for more state funding in the next budget biennium after it lost 1 percent of its appropriation for the 2018-19 school year. On Aug. 3, the NU Board of Regents will review a two-year budget proposal that calls for $17.3 million in additional state appropriations in 2019-20, setting funding for the state's public university system at $588 million. The proposal also calls for a $21.7 million increase in 2020-21, which would raise state funding of NU to $610 million. http://www.hastingstribune.com/news/state/nebraska/nu-to-seek-increase-in-state-aid-for-next-biennium/article_ed6ebf79-ceaf-5844-9b1d-e8ffa515ff42.html
