Higher Ed Chief Making the Case for More Funding
September 18, 2007 5:23 PM
David Skaggs, Colorado's Director of Higher Education wants to change the way colleges and universities here measure success. That's an important step, he says, towards making the case to voters to increase public funding. At present, Colorado ranks 48th in the amount of money state government gives per student to colleges and universities. We're also 45th in terms of the number of high school freshmen who go on to finish college.
