The House Ways and Means Committee completed its work on the state budget late last week.
The Ways and Means version of the budget contains the following specifically for Clemson University:
Clemson E&G
- No new recurring funding
Clemson PSA
- $700,000 in recurring funding for Agriculture and Natural Resources Programming
- $600,000 in recurring funding for Statewide Extension Programming
The Committee’s version of the budget includes an increase in the cost of health insurance and an increase in retirement contributions for state employees and employers. The employee portion of both the health insurance and retirement contribution increases will be paid by the state.
The budget now goes to the full South Carolina House of Representatives.
