Abstract	A study of the impact of economic differentiation on institutional pricing and expenditure policies, higher education public policy, and governance in public colleges and universities is described. It is suggested that economic differentiation is a likely determinant of variation in institutional expenditure and pricing policies and higher education public policy among the states. A series of public policy initiatives are described that may affect the autonomy and governance of public colleges and universities in different states. Since attitudes and perceptions of government agency and institutional officials are the key ingredients in public policy research, a multifaceted research design is employed to ensure data validity. Research subjects include officials of the state coordinating board, public college administrators, and higher education state committee members and support staff. Three research techniques have been selected to identify public policy initiatives and priorities of government agencies: absolute scale technique, rank-order technique, and open-end technique. In addition, published documents, survey techniques, and in-depth interviews are sources of research data. A matrix of research hypotheses, research indicators, and data collection procedures are presented. Finally, a discussion of the implications of public policy for institutional finance in the next decade is included. (SW)
