Rutgers students petition for funds

Rutgers students petition for funds: "Rutgers University students fighting proposed budget cuts presented a petition with nearly 7,000 signatures to two lawmakers Wednesday, renewing a push to restore state funding for higher education.

Assemblyman Patrick Diegnan, D-South Plainfield, said he hopes to restore about $150 million of the college cuts and supports Corzine's sales tax increase to help get the money."
