$10M request for colleges not in budget proposal - RYAN QUINN, Herald Dispatch

Gov. Jim Justice's state budget proposal for next fiscal year doesn't include increasing the annual funding for West Virginia's smaller four-year colleges by $10 million, as the governor's Blue Ribbon Commission on Four-Year Higher Education has requested. Whether the $10 million will ultimately be provided is among multiple open questions regarding how the state's public four-year and community colleges will be funded following last year's increased public debate on the subject. https://www.herald-dispatch.com/news/m-request-for-colleges-not-in-budget-proposal/article_e65abb67-4a54-5078-88d3-eb21df874977.html
