State Grants Will Help CMU Expand and Secure a Lansing Presence

Central Michigan University (CMU) will be occupying and expanding its presence in Lansing as part of an effort to pursue Michigan Department of Education projects.

According to excerpts from the article:

At its Thursday meeting, the Board of Trustees authorized University President Michael Rao to pursue a lease agreement of up to five years for office space in the state capitol at a cost of $15,000 for the first year, and up to $16,500 by the fifth year.

The space will be used to conduct work on two Michigan Department of Education projects; "Michigan Mathematics Program Improvement, and "Michigan's Integrated Technology Supports."

The Michigan Department of Education granted funding for both projects, up to $600,000 for the first, and up to $1,025,000 for the second. The grants are to be awarded on an annual basis; however, it's expected the projects will continue for five years.
