Legislature debates higher ed funding and budget plan
The Senate seeks more budgeting power for the council within the Higher Education Policy Commission while preserving oversight. It aims to shield Bluefield State College’s associate degrees from moves to New River, and to grant university status to Concord Fairmont Shepherd and West Virginia State, a move contested by House leadership. Other issues loom include prescription drug discounts, tobacco settlement bonds, teacher retirement funding, and a new state budget to close a 46.1 million dollar hole, with a special session to finalize allocations.
