The Council on Postsecondary Education Tuition Development Work Group is meeting Wednesday afternoon in Frankfort. 

According to a news release, discussion will center on the biennial budget and the 2016-2017 tuition setting process and the nonresident tuition policy. 

Last week, Kentucky legislators passed a biennial budget, which contains a 4.5% funding reduction to higher ed over two years.

CPE President Bob King said the cuts will have an effect on colleges and universities across the commonwealth, adding he was “confident that the presidents and their staffs will do the very best they can to minimize the impact on our students."

Matt Markgraf joined the WKMS team as a student in January 2007. He's served in a variety of roles over the years: as News Director March 2016-September 2019 and previously as the New Media & Promotions Coordinator beginning in 2011. Prior to that, he was a graduate and undergraduate assistant. He is currently the host of the international music show Imported on Sunday nights at 10 p.m.
