Need for More State Funds for Higher Education
A November Youth Division meeting of the Democratic State Committee discusses the urgent need for greater state funding of higher education in New York. It notes private colleges number over a hundred, yet state support remains under three million dollars, with access limited by scholarships and city college options. Advocates urge a state university to address overcrowding, accessibility, and economic barriers, citing Governor Lehman on economic and discriminatory factors.
