UW Colleges campuses should integrate libraries into instructional technology and academic program planning to the fullest extent possible. The new library system will be implemented in Spring 1999. Campuses should insure that library computers meet the access needs of library staff and students. Physical plant maintenance budgets may not be reduced unless positions are eliminated or other substantial arguments are presented. Preventive maintenance must continue to become part of standard operating procedures.
Safety training is an area of increasing emphasis within the physical plant budget.
Staff may be required to attend no more than two off campus safety training sessions during the fiscal year. Budgets should provide for that training. Plans should be appropriate to the campus community and area and reflect target enrollments as agreed upon for each campus. The institution wide marketing plan will be in addition to campus funding and will not be a direct replacement of campus funding. The student technology fee budget plan must reflect line item allocations by major budget classes, provide detail within class for supply and expense items, must document the duties of personnel supported by the student technology fee, and must document the consultation of student representatives in developing the plan.
