Deeply thankful for the endorsement by the Inter Faculty Organization As an educator and a Regent at the University of Minnesota, I know first-hand how vital academic freedom and shared governance are, and I’ll continue to be a strong, proven ally for faculty and higher education at the Capitol.

Mark Grant detailed the consequences of Minnesota's "High Tuition/High Aid" model of funding public higher ed for gubernatorial candidate Senator Amy Klobachar at Education Minnesota's political conference this weekend.

"The results are chronic underfunding of the Minnesota State system AND an enormous amount of public money going to private colleges and universities."
