Kasich Budget Would Cut Back State-Funded College Internship Program - MOLLY BLOOM, State Impact

Last year, the Ohio Board of Regents announced $11 million in funding for a program to provide internships for Ohio college students: The investment is part of Governor John Kasich’s workforce development efforts to continue to align Ohio’s higher education curriculum with skills that are in demand by Ohio’s businesses. Next year, Kasich’s proposed budget would start significant cuts to the state funding for the internship program. Administration officials say they hope private businesses and colleges and universities will make up some of the proposed funding cuts. http://stateimpact.npr.org/ohio/2013/02/25/kasich-budget-would-cut-back-state-funded-college-internship-program/
