  13. FY 2013 – Priority 2 Capital Improvements • $166,000,000* • Compared to IHL, Mississippi’s 15 community colleges received only .29 cents for every dollar awarded to the state’s eight public universities since 1989. *One-half of the funds to be distributed equally and the balance to be distributed based on enrollment

  14. State Headquarters BuildingCapital Improvements • $9,000,000 separate request • The Legislature has given MCCB the land, and the planning is done. It is time to build a headquarters for the oldest community college system in the nation.

  15. FY 2013 – Priority 3Dropout Recovery • $11,469,500 • Provide the same level of state support per ABE/GED student as students enrolled in regular college level programs • 3,500 dropouts served at FTE value of $3,277 • Short-term skills training and wrap-around services such as transportation, child care and legal aid
