Trustees of the Arkansas State University System have approved a plan to merge the financially struggling Henderson State University into its system. The trustees approved a resolution on the merger Friday at their meeting in Little Rock, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported. Henderson State's trustees had approved a similar measure last month. Under the deal, Henderson State will keep its name and its mascot, the Reddies.
