ATLANA — Beyond cutting overall university and college spending, a Georgia Senate budget proposal also targets Georgia Public Broadcasting and the Georgia Cyber Innovation and Training Center in Augusta. The budget passed the state Senate on Thursday on a 51-1 vote has mainly drawn attention for a $105 million proposed cut to teaching and health insurance funds for the state's 26 public universities and colleges. But the spending plan also proposes a $5.1 million cut to Augusta University's Cyber Center, out of $5.
