STATE BILL COLORADO
‘Colorado State of Mind’ on Rocky Mountain PBS this week examines higher education, which is about to absorb even deeper cuts in its share of state funding. Program host Cynthia Hessin asks: How are public colleges and universities planning to deal with the budget shortfall, and what will the impact be? Is it time, as some have suggested, that the state’s public institutions become private, with no state support?
Joining Hessin:
* Tim Foster, president, Mesa State College, and former head of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education
* Kyle Hybl, University of Colorado Board of Regents
* Charles Scoggin, Board of Trustees, Adams State College
* Herb Fenster, Denver attorney and specialist in state education funding
