Key Budget Issues Competitiveness of faculty and staff salaries Retirement contributions and retiree health Enrollment growth and graduate enrollment Student fees and student financial support Capital outlay 16
Faculty Salaries Lag the Market Faculty Salaries as a Percentage of Market Variance among campuses. Some are at market. Not hiring in order to pay salaries for those here. Very difficult to rebuild. 17
Staff Salaries Also Lag the Market Increases in Funding for Staff Salaries Compared to Market 18
Retirement Contributions No contributions for 19 years Funded status of plan has declined to 83% No funding yet provided by the State 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14* Employer 4% 7% 10% 12% Employee 2% 3.5% 5% 6.5% * proposed 19
Retiree Health Benefits Pay-as-you-go system Rising numbers of retirees Rising health care costs Unfunded liability: $14.6 billion State has contributed to support costs in recent years 20
State-supported Enrollment Most recent campus estimates for 2011-12 put UC at 9,900 California residents for whom the State has never provided marginal cost funding. Total overenrollment is approximately 13,000; and including the cuts UC has faced over the last several years, the University estimates it is enrolling approximately 24,000 students not supported by the State. 21

Funding Streams Initiative
Why did we implement the Funding Streams Initiative? Promote transparency and simplicity Incentivize campuses to maximize revenue Address campus concerns about Educational Fee, Indirect Cost Recovery, and other fund source distribution
Distribution of Core Funds Revenue by Source Location State General Funds Tuition and Fee Revenue Educational Fee Registration Fee Professional School Fees Summer Session Fees Nonresident Tuition* Application Fees* Research-related and Other Revenues Indirect Cost Recovery* Patent Revenue* Interest Income on General Funds* Net State funding calculated as follows: Total Core Funds Budget Estimated Tuition and Fee Revenue Research-related and Other Revenue Net State Funding

General Campus Core Funds Budgets per Student Estimate based on CPEC methodology: General Campus Instruction and Research General Campus Academic Support General Campus shares of support activities Student Services prorated based on General Campus enrollment Other activities prorated based on General Campus I&R and Academic Support budgets Excludes financial aid Variation across campuses is the result of: Changes in State funding over time Historical allocation methods Graduate student proportions Other factors
Re-distribution of Educational Fee Increase Revenue Note: No new funding was provided to systemwide activities during 2008-09. All revenue was returned to campuses. In other years, the share returned to campuses has been lower.
Funding Streams Principles All funds generated on a campus stay on a campus The only exception is undergraduate financial aid Funds previously supporting UCOP returned to campuses UCOP is now funded on a flat tax
UCOP Assessment – 1.6% for 2011-12 Assessment supports $277.7 million for: General Administration Central Services Central Academic Programs Systemwide Initiatives
