    "I saw this graph in post by @alexusherhesa.bsky.social about funding in #HigherEd. I was having trouble interpreting until I recast it: this isn't the distance (amount of funding), it's the speed (change in funding).

      "Histogram titled, "State Spending Is UP" 

Caption: "State support for higher education increased 10.2 percent in the 2024 fiscal year, excluding federal stimulus money."

The graph is a histogram with navy blue bars shows % change in state support from prior fiscal year for FY2019 - FY2024:

FY2019: 3.9%
FY2020: 4.0%
FY2021: 1.0%
FY2022: 8.6%
FY2023: 8.6%

The bars get higher and higher from left to right (except for a big dip in FY2021).
