Background The State budget provides for total core instructional support for the State University of $2,368,097,900, consisting of $1,086,313,900 in State taxpayer support and $1,281,784,000 in State University income from tuition and other revenue sources (see Attachment 1 for year-to-year changes for each campus.) Undistributed campus revenue appropriation is estimated to be $43,664,100. The 2010-11 Enacted Budget includes a reduction of almost $170M, comprised of $121.4M in a lump sum reduction to be applied to the campuses and programs; $33.5M in workforce actions applied to the specific campus and program line item allocations; and a net reduction of $14.9M to the statutory colleges. The campus-specific budget allocations of State tax dollar support and campus revenue, and the allocations for the University-wide programs were developed in an incremental manner, using the final adjusted 2009-10 Adjusted Financial Plan as the starting point. (See Attachment 2 for details.) The allocations for the statutory colleges at Cornell and Alfred University are as set in the appropriation bill. Additional details on the development of the budget are below: * Mandatory Costs � The 2010-11 Enacted Budget included funding in the amount of $122.7M for the costs of collective bargaining increases, general inflation (OTPS), energy, and funding related to the tuition sharing enacted for 2008-09 to bring the University�s share to 30% of the 2008-09 tuition increases. * Enacted Budget State Support Operating Reduction � A reduction of $170M was applied to the base to calculate the final appropriated state support amount. * Campus and Program Allocations � A reduction of $37.2M was applied to the campuses, programs and System Administration. This is the sum of the $170M reduction applicable to the campuses and programs, added to the campus and program share of mandatory costs. The net reduction (that is, the mandatory costs plus the budget reduction) was applied in proportion to each campus�s 2009-10 final adjusted State support base. A share of the operating reduction has been applied to the University-wide programs. (See Attachment 3 for individual program details.) * Statutory Colleges� Allocations provided as presented in the Enacted Budget, including adjustments for mandatory costs and a share of the $170M total operating budget reduction. * Campus Revenue � The revenue estimates are based on the new non-resident undergraduate and graduate rates, and new resident and non-resident first professional tuition rates approved by the Board. Campuses are currently revising the revenue estimates using the most recent enrollment information. These revised revenue estimates will be used to update the total core instructional budget allocations. These updated allocations will be reported to the Finance and Administration Committee and transmitted to the Director of the Budget, the Chairs of the Senate Finance Committee and Assembly Ways and Means Committee, and the Office of the State Comptroller, as required by this resolution. The State University Board of Trustees has the authority to allocate the annual appropriations in accordance with the operating flexibility legislation of 1985. Education Law ��355(4) and 355-a authorize the University to determine the number of positions supported by available personal service funds. The Director of the Budget retains authority over the total aggregate funding (expenditure ceiling) available to the University during any fiscal year. -6- Board Resolution August 12, 2010
