Message from IUPUI Chancellor Charles R. Bantz:
Colleagues,
Last week, the Governor outlined his proposed budget for the State of Indiana for the next biennium. Should the proposal advance through the legislative process as proposed by the Governor, funding for the life sciences would be delayed or postponed, and all higher education institutions in Indiana would see a 4% drop in state funding for the next 2 years. Now that the Governor has presented his budget proposal, the Indiana General Assembly will work to pass their version of the state’s budget. The IU State Relations team will be working hard during the legislative session to build support among legislators for Indiana University and the Indiana Innovation Alliance.
