Explanation
(This amendment provides sufficient general funds to carry out in fiscal year 1998 a faculty salary plan for the public institutions of higher education that averages about five percent, effective December 1, 1997. This plan was started in fiscal year 1997. The objective is to return each institution to the 60th percentile of its peer group by the year 2000. The amount appropriated to the institutions also would provide a four percent increase for administrative faculty, part-time faculty and graduate teaching assistants.)
