Periodic fiscal crises places UHM at risk
Negative incentive to expand/innovate
Units hoard space
Budget rationale incomprehensible after 20+ years
Contributes to lack of confidence in leadership
Difficulty in garnering support from Legislature
Erosion of public confidence in UHM
VCAA has no budget

RCM Concerns and Realities
May not advance univ. mission
Money grubbing lower quality education
Local optimization dominates global good
Vigilance needed against:
Possible misalignment of revenue & priorities
Trade barriers
Gut courses
Arguments about allocation rules
Support centers need efficiency incentives
Rapid redistributions may need “surge tanks”
Mānoa Faculty Senate, 11/19/14
FACULTY SENATE
RCs: Dept. vs. College
Depts.
make decisions about courses
Less dependent on having a good dean
Deans have explicit subvention funds so:
Initiatives are more transparent
Initiatives are not considered parasitic

Conclusion
“Once RCM is in place,
people get addicted to the information
connecting all the moving parts!
Devolution into the black box is not an option.”
