PRESIDENT’S SUPPORT for CAMPUS and STUDENT INITIATIVES

A defining characteristic of the President’s administration is his personal accessibility and strong support for the endeavors and achievements of faculty, staff, and students. This philosophy is often expressed as “watering the green spots” and its effective implementation requires some budgetary flexibility that allows the President to respond to requests for funding or sponsorship of initiatives, special activities, events, or travel from faculty, staff, students, and the community. Many such examples exist ranging from a community service project to presentation of a paper at a national conference. The allocation of funding to support these activities is on a non-recurring basis, although requests such as these are on-going.

The President has relied on about $200,000 in additional support derived primarily from excess revenues. The permanent allocation of this request reduces the reliance on general reserves and excess revenues for funding of these activities.
