DR. JENKINS: I think the worst one would be
|
|
3
|
to have the Superintendent of the schools appointed by
|
|
4
|
the governor . There is no need to take time with that one .

THE CHAIRMAN: I was going to come to that one.

I would like to ask you this: If the Committee goes along
|
|
7
|
with the recommendation that you are making, Mr. Raver,
|
|
8
|
namely, that the budget of the State Department of Educa-
|
|
9
|
tion shall be untouchable by the governor, then to that
|
|
10
|
extent at least fiscal autonomy has been granted by the
|
|
11
|
Constitution to the State school system. Would you agree
|
|
12
|
then that the same autonomy should be granted to the
|
|
13
|
University of Maryland?
|
|
14
|
MR. RAVER: They are different. You can probabl
|
|
15
|
equate one to the other, but what you say to the University
|
|
16
|
of Maryland is that we will give you fiscal autonomy. We
|
|
17
|
are going to give you a lump sum of money. Do with it as
|
|
18
|
you please. The kind of fiscal autonomy you have mentioned
|
|
19
|
is not that. It is a line-by-line item, and the State
|
|
20
|
Department, after it gets this money, cannot switch it
|
|
21
|
around and take money for teachers and spend for something
