Explanation

(This amendment provides an additional $385,368 GF in the second year for unique military activities (UMA) at Virginia Tech. It has been the intent of the General Assembly to distribute funding for UMA equitably across the entire Virginia Corps of Cadets. In 2020-21, Virginia Tech is receiving $979 less per cadet in UMA General Fund appropriation than the Virginia Military Institute. An incremental increase of $385,368 per year will eliminate this funding disparity by the end of the 2022-2024 biennium. )
