A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR THE DOCTORAL PROGRAM AT EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  There is appropriated from the General Fund to the Board of Governors of The University of North Carolina the sum of two million dollars ($2,000,000) for the 1998-99 fiscal year for East Carolina University to help support its Doctoral II programs.
This appropriation is in recognition of past costs absorbed by East Carolina University in achieving doctoral degree production at the level of the Doctoral II Carnegie classification with less than traditional doctoral level funding and for initiating the transition to Doctoral II status during 1998-99, pending further, more specific, Doctoral II funding requests in the 1999 legislative session.
Section 2.  This act becomes effect July 1, 1998.
