Recommendation: Approval of the following operating budgets for the 2016-17 fiscal year and authorization of the President of Indiana State University to establish salaries and wages within the capabilities of budgeted resources. INDIANA STATE UNIVERSITY 2016-17 Budgets The General Fund, Student Services, Auxiliary and Other Operating Units, and Line-Item summary budgets for 2016-17 are described below along with the related key planning points as discussed with the Board of Trustees Finance Committee on February 19, 2016. GENERAL FUND BUDGET Revenues Revenue projected for the General Fund budget in 2016-17 totals $175,800,000, a 2.7% increase compared to 2015- 16. The change in revenue comes primarily from a general student fee increase for resident and non-resident students, an increase in budgeted student enrollment, an increase of $165,375 from Residential Life and $30,000 from the Student Recreation Center for utility cost reimbursement, and other miscellaneous revenue adjustments. The operating appropriation decreased by $264,829 from the 2015-16 level. Budgeted tuition for 2016-17 assumes an average of 100% of the undergraduate and graduate full-time equivalent enrollment of the previous two fall semesters. The increase in net budgeted tuition of $2,226,665 includes a 1.95% tuition and mandatory fee increase ($1,865,706), enrollment growth ($2,828,704), the offset of the increase in the debt service appropriation, and other minor budget adjustments. Overall, student tuition represents 53.1% of the total general fund budget (compared to 37.5% for state operating appropriations). To meet the priorities and commitments reflected in the budget, reallocations (reductions) were required as a part of the 2016-17 budget planning process. A total of $545,084 was reallocated from 2015-16 base budgets to fund increases in compensation and other priority budget items. Included in this amount is $343,851 of retiree life insurance premiums to be charged to the VEBA Trust, effective July 1, 2016. The state maintained the same level of support for Degree Link, a separate line item appropriation, as during the 2015-16 year of $446,438. The appropriation is accounted for in a separate cost center budget to support the delivery of Indiana State University baccalaureate degree programs at Ivy Tech Community College and Vincennes University locations. Expenditures I. Compensation The 2016-17 operating budget contains a projected two percent (2.0%) increase pool for salary adjustments plus amounts set aside for faculty and staff target salary programs. Criteria for any salary adjustments will be determined once enrollment numbers are known for the Fall 2016 semester and an assessment of overall budgetary conditions has been made. Faculty promotions and degree adjustments are funded internally within Academic Affairs. Student wage departmental budgets were also increased by two percent (2.0%) overall. Fringe benefit budgets allocated to each division of the University are annually realigned to more closely reflect actual expenditure patterns. The University provides eligible employees with a full benefit package which includes health coverage (medical, Rx, dental), retirement contributions, life insurance, and long-term disability.
