LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Wayne State University’s president urged lawmakers Tuesday not to limit the school’s state aid in retaliation for approving an eight-year contract just before the contentious right-to-work law goes into effect.

Some Republicans have questioned the university’s lengthy tentative contract agreement with union faculty just before the law goes into effect later this month, and have proposed plans that could limit state funding for such actions. But school President Allan Gilmour defended the contract, arguing that it is in the best interest for the school and the state.
