<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">I am delighted to report that we are investing about $25M of accumulated lottery funds (one-time monies) to address deferred instructional needs. The Library received $4.5M (for
collections, compact shelving, and enhanced learning spaces), University Extension received $370K (for instructional technology and digital production), Undergraduate Education received $725K (for graduate student assistants in XCITE and for a customer relations
management system as requested by the academic advisors), and $752K was allocated for a campus video production studio. Each college and school received an initial block grant (BCOE $650K, CHASS $850K, CNAS $850K, Business $350K, SOE $300K, SOM $300K, SPP
$300K). Then, in consultation with department chairs, the deans developed additional needs lists, which will be funded up to the following amounts (BCOE $4.23M, CHASS $4.522M, CNAS $6.831M, and Business $168K).

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Note that over the past five years, the cumulative permanent core new tuition dollars distributed to the colleges and schools equate to about $4,000,000, which represents about 1.5% of the
colleges and schools’ permanent budgets in FY22 ($265M). The subventions that form the majority of the base allocation to colleges and schools remain unchanged by this action, but the subvention funding is adjusted annually based on salary and benefit increases
and any other core funded central activities to the Schools and Colleges. Note also that School of Medicine is now able to operate its finances independently, consistent with other medical schools, since it received a permanent state allocation of $25M in
FY21.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

F&A as a permanent source of core funding (instead of as temporary funds, so the annual salary and benefit increases can be covered by the central campus core budget). Deans can use F&A for any expense, as they do with state and tuition funds; they will also
be expected to cover the full cost of faculty start-up packages. The allocation of F&A has changed as follows:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
