Dear Colleagues:
I am very interested to learn about those states that provide "automatic"
matching funds to externally funded grants obtained by public universities
for sponsored program activities.

Information Desired:
1. State?
2. Eligible institutions?
3. Percent matching commitment from the State?
4. Any general restrictions: e.g. types of grants eligible for matching,
maximum matching dollars, uses of matching funds, etc.?
5. Any direct links to performance based budgeting or incentive funding
programs?
6. Any general comments on success/problems with the matching program?

Many thanks for your consideration.

Sincerely,  Rich Linton
