Early state funding proposals suggest 3 percent cut to UT - JOSHUA FECHTER, Daily Texan

The University would face a cut of almost 3 percent in state funds if Texas legislators follow budget recommendations released last week, although the budget may change during the legislative process. The Texas House of Representatives would allocate $478.8 million in state general revenue funds to the University during the 2014-15 biennium, while the Senate would allocate $483.8 million over the biennium. Both of the initial proposals are about $9 to $14 million less than the $492.5 million the Legislature allocated to UT in the last biennium. http://www.dailytexanonline.com/news/2013/01/22/early-state-funding-proposals-suggest-3-percent-cut-to-ut
