Higher Ed Budget Lower Than Expected
According to Inside Higher Education, the final appropriations for higher education were not as lucrative for the institutions and students as originally hoped (see earlier post). As an educator I can be disappointed. As a fiscal conservative, I can be glad that the country isn’t trying to increase funding for everything at once. Of course, as a matter of priorities, one can’t help but believe there is spending on pork projects that could have funded higher ed instead. Such is politics.
