Ongoing Budget Augmentations, $71.7 Million
The CSU’s annual support budget increase is primarily dedicated to serving
new students and funding annual base cost increases. These needs are included
in the Higher Education Compact. The Compact, however, does not fund new initiatives
to address pressing state needs nor does it provide funding for priorities neglected
during the recent lean budget years when the legislature directed the CSU to minimize
the impact of budget cuts on instructional programs. The additional funding requested
in the 2007/08 budget targets these areas.
Supplemental funding is requested in six areas:
