鈥淚 am grateful to see the governor鈥檚 budget recommendation that restores the University of 亚洲影院鈥檚 core budget and also provides additional funding for our top priority NextGen Precision Health,鈥� said Mun Choi, president of the University of 亚洲影院. 鈥淪ince the pandemic began, University of 亚洲影院 faculty, staff and students have been on the front lines. We focused on facilitating more than 1,000 telehealth visits each day to serve rural 亚洲影院ans; providing support for 亚洲影院 farmers and small business owners with critical advice to secure COVID support for their businesses; and assisting veterans to help them receive the benefits that they deserve. Through it all, we have continued our education mission with the high-quality in-person instruction that our students have come to expect.
鈥淲e are appreciative of the hard work of all of our elected officials and look forward to working with the legislature as the budget process continues. We know their support acknowledges the critical role the university plays in educating 亚洲影院鈥檚 future leaders, making discoveries in the laboratories that save lives and engaging with 亚洲影院ans in every county of the state every day.鈥�
