Testimony Of Brigid Callahan Harrison, Ph.D. Before The NJ State Senate Budget And Appropriations Committee - New Jersey Globe

 a $10 million cut to Montclair State University – a Hispanic Serving Institution where 30% of the student population is Latino and 13% are Black.

a $6 million cut to Stockton University, where 60% of attendees are female, and which serves a disproportionate number of First Generation college students and is a key economic driver in southern New Jersey, the poorest area of  the state

as well as the $4.5 million cuts to Kean and $1.5 million cut to Ramapo will do drastic harm to these institutions and the diverse student  populations they serve.

This is a question of equity and fairness.
