In yesterday's post on the 10 consequences of the rollback in state funding, I mentioned complaints I'd heard during this year's legislative session that the state had (years ago) abandoned its tradition of funding two thirds of the cost of a student's public college education.
Some had suggested it was a "pledge" or "promise."
But it appears to be only an "intention."
The "at least" and "stable funding" bits sound quaintly optimistic.
