2 Centers for International Studies Fight To Survive Without Federal Funds.
Rubin, Amy Magaro
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n31 pA47-A48 Apr 11 1997
The East-West Center (Hawaii) and North-South Center (Florida) for hemisphere-oriented international studies have lost most federal funding and have had to trim staff, cut programs, and begin solicitation of private support. While lawmakers admit the centers do important work, they feel they are unnecessary and the work could be done elsewhere. Reputations in academe vary. (MSE)
