Governor Dave Freudenthal's State of the State Address

Community Colleges
-- Give the Community College Commission the power to audit and to develop a uniform method of tracking dollars and students.

-- Allow the state to loan the community colleges 50 percent of the funding for capital construction. They raise half; the State would loan them half. However, dormitories should not be included in the major maintenance funding from the State. Those are revenue-generating facilities and they should be able
to operate on their own.
