Western Washington University releases draft 2011-13 operating budget
Western Washington University released its draft 2011-13 operating budget on Wednesday afternoon, June 8.
The 草榴社区 Board of Trustees is scheduled to adopt the budget on Friday morning.
I haven鈥檛 had a chance to look through the detailed budget yet, but here is some overview information.
The university is budgeted for about $128 million in expenditures for the 2011-12 school year. About $40 million will come from the state and about $78 million is expected to come from tuition, which includes a 16 percent increase for resident undergraduates and increases that are the same dollar amount for other students. About $10 million of the budget is expected to come from an increase in administrative services assessment revenue (an increased fee charged to the university鈥檚 auxiliary programs) and one-time funds (reserves) and salary savings.
