    FINANCIAL REPORT Year Ended June 30, 2013 Front Cover: David Owsley Museum of Art To The President and Board of Trustees Ball State University This financial report presents the financial position of Ball State University at June 30, 2013, and the results of activities for the year then ended. Randall B. Howard Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer December 13, 2013 REPORT OF THE TREASURER On behalf of the Board of Trustees of Ball State University, I am pleased to present Ball State University’s 2012-13 Financial Report. What follows is an objective record of the University’s stewardship of its human, physical and financial resources. Ball State University’s management has prepared and is responsible for the completeness and fairness of the financial statements and the related footnote disclosures included in this report, along with the discussion and analysis. Ball State is currently at an exciting juncture in its 95-year history. The increasingly global, technology-driven marketplace is demanding new skills of college graduates. The University has taken a proactive approach in recognizing these changing dynamics and responding with bold steps to ensure its competitiveness as a top-quality choice in public higher education. Ball State’s response is multi-faceted but can be summarized with one word – “distinctiveness”. The health of the University, which is defined by quality students and quality faculty, relies on being known for unique qualities and attributes. Before you get to the Financial Statements, I wanted to share with you a little bit about the University itself, our history and composition, and to highlight some of the exciting news from our Strategic Plan and the distinctive education that we provide at Ball State.
