Study examines space at colleges

Wednesday, July 14, 1999 | 11:24 a.m.

First there was funding equity. Now there is space equity.

Last month the university system regents agreed to hire MGT of America of Tallahassee, Fla., the organization that performed a funding equity study for the higher education system, to do a $50,000 study to determine whether the state's colleges and universities have fair amounts of space.

Dennis Currey, a representative of MGT, met with the regents' equity committee Tuesday and explained the upcoming space analysis study, to be completed in October.

Currey said his staff will review existing standards and formulas and "identify the application of the criteria now used as to space utilization."

The staff will take random samples of the rooms to see what they are being used for and make sure the use is consistent throughout the system.

MGT will prepare a report containing recommendations on space standards.
