An expected legislative floor fight
will probably produce a close vote
oh the. move to restore $1 million
cut by the Legislature's Budget
Committee from Gov. Anderson's
recommendations on the Univer-
sity Budget.
The budget bill is expected to
come to the floor this week. Under
the rules of the Legislature, de
bate could begin immediately.-
The governor approved a $3.2
million increase for the Univer
sity; $2.3 million under the Chan
cellor's original request.
The Budget Committee slashed
$1 million off, the governor's fig
ure. ' . '
The University has been work
ing hard to rally support on the
floor to restore this $1 million.
Sen. Otto Kotouc of Humbolt and
Otto Liebers of Lincoln are ex
pected to be among the leaders of
this fight.'
Sources indicate that the action
of the Board of Regents to raise
tuition might have a favorable ef-
in
tax funds. '
The tuition increases are esti
mated to produce $1 million dur
ing the next two years.
