Summary

The Senate passed a bill that allocates more than $1.6 billion from the state general fund, federal student fees, and special endowments to the Board of Trustees of State Institutions of Higher Learning. The money supports the eight state‑supported universities, off‑campus centers, and specific programs such as the Governor’s School for the Gifted and Talented and the Teacher Corps. The funding is intended to cover operations, maintenance, interest income, and remediation while ensuring that general funds do not replace lost federal dollars.
