Texas higher education budget hike backed 1965 67
The Texas Commission on Higher Education endorsed a 315.5 million dollar budget for 1965-67 and urged higher tuition. It recommended a 50 dollar per semester rise for residents and non residents, plus a 23 percent faculty pay increase to reach the national average. The panel also urged phasing out Texas Southern University law school by Sept 1 1967 due to cost and overlap with the University of Houston Law School.
