MR. PERKIHS: I'm the budget Analyst for all
|
|
2
|
of education in the State of Maryland, which is about half
|
|
3
|
of the general fund budget of the State, which would be ovei
|
|
4
|
$250,000,000.
|
|
5
|
MR. SACHS: How does that work, Mr. Perkins?
|
|
6
|
What do you do as far as —
|
|
7
|
MR. PERKINS: I analyze the budgets of the
|
|
8
|
State Department of Education which includes the formula,
|
|
9
|
and all of the colleges and the University of Maryland.
|
|
10
|
MR. SACHS: And what do you consider you are
|
|
11
|
empowered to do with what you get? The education - people
|
|
12
|
give you some figures. What do you then do with them?
|
|
13
|
MR. PERKIHS: We analyze the budget on the
|
|
14
|
basis of need and when you are talking about the University
|
|
15
|
and the colleges, we have certain ratios, student to
|
|
16
|
faculty and salaries and so forth. So, I analyze the
|
|
17
|
budget and I make my recommendations to the Governor,
|
|
18
|
what should be cut out of the budget and what is allowed
|
|
19
|
in the budget.
|
|
20
|
THE CHAIRMAN: How can he cut out anything in
|
|
21
|
the educational budget?
