Daily Debriefing
Many state-funded community colleges will likely face midyear budget cuts, according to a survey conducted by Stephen Katsinas, director of the Education Policy Center in the College of Education at the University of Alabama and Terrence Tollefson, professor emeritus in the department of educational leadership and policy analysis at East Tennessee State University. The survey found that 18 of 28 states with community college funding formulas did not generate enough revenue to finance their programs. Additionally, state appropriations to community colleges dropped 5.15 percent between the 2006-2007 school year and the 2007-2008. Appropriations to flagship universities fell 1.76 percent and regional universities fell 3.7 percent in that time period. These cuts are expected to have the greatest impact on schools with occupational, vocational and technical programs . The survey may not fully represent the extent of the community college funding deficiency because the majority of states responded before the market collapse in September.
