Gaston said A&M will con tinue to seek approval because it will want to proceed at the ear liest possible time. "Hopefully, the proposals will be approved without delay when the financial situation im proves and the board can unf reeze its funds," Gaston said. If funding does not improve by July 1992, then previously ap proved degree programs put "on nold" would be brought back be fore the board for another re view. "We need to do that because priorities can change," Reasoner said. Kenneth Ashworth, commis sioner of higher education, con ceded that the Board's action would "make some people and some schools unhappy," but he said it is an essential step toward trying to protect quality in higher education. "We cannot keep adding new programs, new services and new buildings on top of an educatio nal foundation lacking adequate financial support," Ashworth said. Gaston said two other non substantive proposals for a mas ter's of science in journalism and a doctorate in anthropology will be submitted shortly. The degrees are nonsubstan tive because they can be ap proved at the HECB staff level instead of requiring approval from the board itself. Gaston said he does not know how the nonsubstantive propo sals will fare with the staff, out remains optimistic. Funding for these requests is more readilly accessible than that needed for new degree programs, he added. All aspects of higher education are feeling the budget pinch, Ben Latham, chairman of the board's Campus Planning Com mittee, said Texas institutions al ready are half a billion dollars be hind in needed maintenance. "These new buildings could translate into a demand for over $4 million in state funds each year to operate and maintain them," Latham said. "I believe that for us to continue to ap prove projects would be to cause even more harm to higher edu cation through the further dilut ion of the limited funds we ha Dire filliam Mo ie instituh 175,000 in evelopmei The cent ie Texas i im Board r ve. fAGGIE RING ORDERS 1 Orders will be taken on the 2nd Floor of the CLAYTON W.
