VPIRG Middlebury Chapter Effort Collapses
VPIRG's Middlebury College push failed after the group rejected a direct funding proposal. Director Herman Bluestein said VPIRG will accept only a negative check-off system, adding students can exempt themselves or seek refunds. The plan was opposed by the Environmental Quality group that sponsored it. The negative check-off is used at six of VPIRG's seven colleges. Vermont Technical College may withdraw. The University of Vermont already uses the system, with trustees approving it last year.
