Dr. Lester Pesterfield's summer attire is blue jean shorts and a tee­ shirt, not a bow tie and jacket. His youth and excitement give him an appearance and personal­ ity more closely resembling the students he teaches than that of the stereotypical chemistry professor. Pesterfield, in his fifth year at Western Kentucky University, may be relatively new to the Hilt but he has already made an impact upon his shtdents. The winner of the 1996 Univer­ sity Award for Excellence in Teaching says that he was very surprised to receive the award. ''I'm honored," he said. "I really didn't think, being an assistant professor, I had enough time or material to stack up with some of the people who had been here 15 to 20 years." Pesterfield says he judges his success by the way students relate to him outside class.

  • WKU Board of Regents ACTION ITEM FB-1
    WKU Board of Regents ACTION ITEM FB-1 2020-21 OPERATING BUDGET REQUEST: Approve the 20120-21 Operating Budget. FACTS: The WKU 2020-21 Budget is WKU’s financial plan for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020 and ending June 30, 2021 – it includes both the Operating and Capital Budgets for WKU. The budget document includes the following components: . Narratives by area that summarize Strategic Plan priorities; . Revenue Summary; . Expenditure Summary by Organizational Area (Unrestricted, Auxiliary Enterprises and Restricted) and Program Classification Structure (PCS); . Expenditure Detail by unit (not included in the Summary Budget); . Capital Budget; and . Supplemental Information. The Operating Budget includes Educational and General (E&G) and Auxiliary Enterprises revenues and expenditures. E&G revenue consists of unrestricted revenue (primarily state appropriation and tuition and fees) and restricted revenue (e.g., federal and state funds for student financial aid and for grants and contracts). Unrestricted funds are resources that are to be utilized at the discretion of the university. Restricted funds are separately identified resources for which external donors or agencies place limitations on how the funds may be used. Auxiliary Enterprises revenue is from the self-supporting activities of WKU such as housing (reimbursed costs from the Student Life Foundation), WKU Restaurant Group, and student fees supporting Downing Student Union operating and debt costs. The Capital Budget provides a listing of major capital and lease/purchase projects, funding sources, and the current status of these projects. The General Assembly authorizes a maximum funding for each project for a biennium. However, depending on funding available, some projects may be completed at less than the authorized amount.
