Virginia College Plan Faces Final Senate OK
Gov Mills J Godwin hinges final passage of a comprehensive Community College bill in the General Assembly. The Senate Public Institutions and Education Committee approved the measure 15 0 with an amendment shielding seven existing branches until SACS accreditation is confirmed and requiring parent colleges to aid branch accreditation. Lawmakers from Eastern Shore and Martinsville opposed branch inclusion citing potential loss of prestige and quality. Godwin issued a prompt statement after committee approval.
