Public Higher-Education Systems Face Painful Choices as Three Northeastern States Confront Massive Deficits.
Blumenstyk, Goldie
Chronicle of Higher Education, v35 n22 pA17-19 Feb 8 1989
Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York face giant deficits in their state budgets. The financial impact of the 1986 federal tax reform law was underestimated by colleges and income estimates were overly optimistic for 1988 and 1989. Unpopular, new taxes are seen as the way to solve the budget crunch. (MLW)
