2008/09 Budgetary Challenges
Ongoing Budget Augmentations
The CSU’s annual support budget increase is primarily dedicated to serving
new students and funding annual cost increases included in the Higher Education
Compact. The Compact, however, does not provide funding for new and expanded
initiatives to address pressing state needs and priorities neglected during years
when state resources were insufficient to fully address education program
requirements. The “above Compact” funding requested in the 2008/09 CSU Support
Budget addresses the following state needs and priorities:
