From a fiscal standpoint only, the Bookstore fund has consistently been the most successful of the enterprise funds. Each fund is self-supporting, at least in theory, but each can make and receive transfers from other auxiliary enterprises, whichever is warranted. As a result, the Bookstore fund has been able to offset any deficits of the other auxiliary operations in the recent past. In 1993, the Wellness Center opened. The College replaces one van every other year, which requires a nominal transfer from the Bookstore fund during the year the purchase is made.
