The resulting mapping will be distributed at the RA Consultation on April 18. We want to avoid precipitous change, not all change. This special CI would differ from the regular CI for 1997 only in that the CIP Code for each course would be replaced with the Subject Code. That is, the special CI would have Subject Codes that reflect the content of the course, not the department that funds it. Then, in the fall of 1997, we can use this version of the CI in conjunction with the 1997 enrollments to report the number of Student FTE that move from one Subsidy Model to another for each campus, on a course by course basis.
Campuses can present documentation to justify non-standard mappings for particular courses.
If OBR staff agree with the justification, the courses will be added to the HEI Subsidy Model Exceptions table. We could perhaps temporarily reintroduce a Subsidy Code into the HEI Course Inventory which would provide data to inform the mapping of Subject Code and Level to Subsidy Model. The HEI staff discourages using the third method. Some have the Sociology Program Code, others have the Interdisciplinary Program Code. Rule 2 has Sociology in GS 1 and Interdisciplinary in GS 2.
