Budget Reduction
• 5% annual reduction in state funding equates to $4.9
million per year, or $210 less per full time equivalent
student.
– State appropriations account for 25% of total revenues

Budget Reduction Impacts
• Continued reliance on non tenure track faculty to teach
new course sections required for enrollment
• Student Faculty Ratio has increased
• Realignment of administrative resources is ongoing, as
vacancies occur when practicable
• Shifting of costs to other revenue sources, e.g.
designated tuition and fees
• Use of reserves and other savings from revenues
realized due to unbudgeted enrollment growth
