College of Law to receive $58.8 million

Georgia State’s College of Law will be the biggest beneficiary of bonds recommended by Governor Nathan Deal in his $19.8 billion fiscal 2014 budget request.

Of the $19.8 billion, $713.4 will go to higher education.

The College of Law will receive $58.8 million for the new law school currently in the planning phase of the project, while Georgia Regents University in Augusta will receive $45 million for a cancer research building.

The remaining money will go to other universities, though it will only be used to construct new buildings.
