Vermont House boosts higher ed funds amid budget talks
The House Appropriations Committee added 456000 to the Vermont State Colleges budget to fund a 9.4 percent teacher pay rise, while leaving the University of Vermont allocation at 12.8 million for fiscal 1978. The panel nearly eliminated Vermont’s contribution to the New England Higher Education Compact, cutting 26000 to 2 in protest of inbound student flow, and rejected a 250000 request for the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation.
