An editorial in today's Buffalo News urges Albany lawmakers to adopt the Public Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act, which would allow campuses to set their own tuition rates and encourage partnership with private companies. The editorial states that "the Assembly needs to bear down on this issue. This is no time for politics as usual, but for state government to take off its blinders, see the landscape for what it really is, and act. Upstate is counting on this. It needs to happen. This year."
