According to Broderick, a healthy reserve should be 10 percent of total revenue. That's around a 30-percent increase to the budget. Alice Samuel of MUB BOG asked Broderick if the MUB could get money by charging a fee on summer students. Leila Moore, vice president of Student Affairs, said there are so many problems that we don't want to bring in another issue right now. So we have to come out as good as possible.
Administration takes a slight hit with the revised budget, too.
According to Broderick that money goes into Fund 1,000 - the general university fund into which students' tuition money is pooled to pay for professors, administrative offices and other university spending. This office will once again be no frills, as it has been for the past couple of years. And next year will be the same thing. Broderick said raising the student fee is something that has to be done to keep the MUB in the black. But that's not happening.
