HER is an

currently-enrolled graduate students or have written their manuscript during
graduate school. Graduate students from a variety of disciplines and fields

David A. Tandberg, a Volume 5 author and former editor of Higher Education in Review has received the 2008 Outstanding Dissertation Award from the
Politics of Education Association. Tandberg’s dissertation, entitled “Politics, Budgetary Tradeoffs, and State Funding of Public Higher Education,” examines the political and
budgetary forces that influence state appropriations to public higher education. A similar purpose underscores Tandberg’s recently published
article in Higher Education in Review. Based upon data covering all 50 states over 24 years, Tandberg’s analysis indicates that political attributes have significant,
theoretically predictable effects on the share of state funding public higher education receives. |
