County Appropriations County appropriations are funds provided from the tax base of each county in Oregon as contributions to support the university's county extension service. The student tuition and fees source of funding for the current operating budget includes all tuition and fees assessed to students for educational purposes. The gifts, grants, and contracts category provides the second greatest dollar proportion of the university's operating budget. Auxiliary Enterprises Auxiliary enterprises of the university furnish goods and services to students, faculty, or staff, charging a fee directly related to cost. These enterprises are mainly self-supporting.
Examples are residence halls, intercollegiate athletics, and faculty and staff parking.
Sales and Services Sales and services revenue is income related incidentally to the conduct of instruction, research, and public service. These funds are generated when activities that provide instructional and laboratory experience for students incidentally create goods and services that may be sold to students, faculty, staff, and the general public. Examples are sales of scientific and literary publications, testing services, and sales of agricultural products and services.
