Budget planning model

Linc Kallsen, a liaison from the central administration, presented a powerpoint of the budget planning model that is he has been working in consultation with our finance office. His presentation included framing graphs and slides that were used for our Compact meeting as well as conceptual budget modeling. His models are based on several big assumptions: no salary increases; fringe is estimated at FY10 rates; increase in facilities; tuition increase; no new debt; and no recurring reduction in state support. He will continue to work with us through the summer. His budget modeling spreadsheet will be used as a basis for getting this committee involved in the budget process.
