Business First Editorial Urges Passage of PHEEIA

An editorial in Business First urges the state legislature to save UB 2020 by passing the Public Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act (PHEEIA). "The PHEEIA would allow UB and other state colleges and universities to leverage private funding to create growth. It would free UB from some of the most restrictive bureaucratic constraints and allow the university's leaders to make key financial decisions….We'd really like to see our assemblymembers and senators stop giving lip service to UB 2020 and start demanding action in Albany."
