Track Education issues at the Virginia Legislature in 2008

VCU's Office of Government Relations offers a tool for tracking
proposed education-related legislation on their web site at
http://www3.vcu.edu/govrel/ga-08aleg.shtml

It's all there--everything from bond bills to guns on campus to
the "academic freedom" bill that was also proposed last year-
