On Wednesday, Apr. 16, about 80 UMass members of the Public Higher Education Network of Massachusetts -- or PHENOM -- and I took a bus down to the Statehouse. They were lobbying for Gov. Patrick's $ 2 billion capital bond bill that would pump money into the operating budgets of the 29 public institutions of higher learning in Massachusetts and $17 million into a fading MASSGrant program, the state's fundamental financial aid system.
And I went for the ride to cover for the Boston Globe, the Massachusetts Daily Collegian and the Daily Hampshire Gazette. Click each paper to read each article, and be sure to check out the video package I put together.
More multimedia stuff like this coming soon.
