An editorial urges state lawmakers to resist tying to manage building programs at state colleges and universities. For some lawmakers to demand that colleges pass a resolution promising to honor laws requiring legislative approval for projects "smacks of meddling," the editorial states. The newspaper suggests that one compromise might be a higher limit, such as $5 million, before legislative approval is needed for new construction projects. "The whole process needs to be revisited, with an eye toward coordinating big projects but giving universities the freedom to grow and innovate."
