Fund higher education

Mary Ann Tyler-Allen writes in a letter-to-the-editor that Michigan's higher education funding formula is not properly supporting the state's three largest universities. Under the formula, Wayne State University only gets credit for its 24,000 full-time students rather than the total 33,000 students who are enrolled at WSU, according to Tyler-Allen. "The Legislature shouldn't discriminate against part-time students. All students are trying to improve their prospects for the future."
