By Shelby Brown–

Last month, the Kentucky Supreme Court declared Governor Matt Bevin’s two percent university budget slash unconstitutional in a 5-2 ruling. Attorney General Andy Beshear has ordered Bevin to “immediately” return the $18 million to the affected colleges and universities.

Bevin and Beshear seem to have different definitions of “immediately.” The Governor has been dragging his feet on the matter.

“I guess he’s upset because he’s not getting his way,” Arts & Sciences Dean Kimberly Kempf-Leonard said.
