Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
The allocation of resources to accommodate peak enrollments
				  through the early 1980s should be made in a manner that is cognizant of
				  probable subsequent enrollment declines to levels comparable to current
				  enrollments.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 23 - EDUCATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCES › Part 1070 - A MASTER PLAN FOR POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION IN ILLINOIS › Subpart A - ENROLLMENTS › Section 1070.102 - Annual Report

Illinois Administrative Code › Title 23 - EDUCATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCES › Part 1070 - A MASTER PLAN FOR POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION IN ILLINOIS › Subpart B - FINANCING: OPERATIONS AND GRANTS › Section 1070.201 - Planning and Management

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
To meet the projected resource requirements for operating
				  expenses through fiscal year 1985, public and private postsecondary
				  institutions must plan and manage resource use for growth and decline. This
				  planning and management should continue and intensify the present commitment to
				  reallocate resources and increase productivity. These efforts will involve a
				  thorough reassessment of program priorities within postsecondary
				  education.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 23 - EDUCATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCES › Part 1070 - A MASTER PLAN FOR POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION IN ILLINOIS › Subpart B - FINANCING: OPERATIONS AND GRANTS › Section 1070.202 - Additional Support

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
In addition to all of the efforts by postsecondary education
				  to conserve and reduce resource requirements, increased State general revenue
				  support will be required to support the additional enrollment and inflationary

Illinois Administrative Code › Title 23 - EDUCATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCES › Part 1070 - A MASTER PLAN FOR POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION IN ILLINOIS › Subpart B - FINANCING: OPERATIONS AND GRANTS › Section 1070.203 - Public University Tuition

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a)
				Tuition charges for resident, undergraduate students should be maintained at a
				level of one-third of undergraduate instructional costs, calculated on the
				appropriate system base. To this end, public university systems should raise
				undergraduate tuitions proportionately so that the one-third policy will be
				fully implemented no later than fiscal year 1980. Following full implementation
				of the one-third policy by fiscal year 1980, tuition charges should be updated
				annually and routinely applied in Board of Higher Education budget
				recommendations. This tuition policy should be implemented, provided that:
1) The General Assembly and Governor increase
				funding of the Illinois State Scholarship Commission's monetary award program
				and/or other programs to offset the impact of any proposed tuition increases on
				financially needy students;
2) Full
				implementation of the one-third policy at any one system does not result in
				undergraduate tuition charges higher than undergraduate tuition charges at the
				University of Illinois;
3) In the
				calculation of undergraduate instructional costs to determine appropriate
				tuition charges, new institutions should be excluded from the calculations
				during the first ten years of operation, but should maintain tuition levels
				equal to those of other universities within the same system;
4) The instructional cost base is defined as
				the most current undergraduate instructional cost base as determined by the
				unit cost study. Instructional costs exclude State appropriations for
				retirement, capital improvements, research, and public service.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
In its annual budget recommendations, the Board of Higher
				  Education will continue to consider the effects of inflation upon public
				  universities, especially with regard to salaries, the cost of commodities and
				  services, and program support.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 23 - EDUCATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCES › Part 1070 - A MASTER PLAN FOR POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION IN ILLINOIS › Subpart B - FINANCING: OPERATIONS AND GRANTS › Section 1070.205 - Community College Financing

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a)
				The State funding plan for public community colleges should be based upon the
				following principles:
1) Instruction which
				generates credit hours should be divided into categories determined on the
				basis of local and State purpose and on relative statewide unit
				costs;
2) Non-credit hour
				activities included in the missions of the community colleges should be
				considered a separate category. This includes community education, public
				service, and research activities;
3) For every instructional category
				generating credit hours the State will make flat grants per credit hour for a
				certain percentage of the difference between:
A) The statewide average cost in the system
				for that category, as adjusted for inflation, marginal cost savings, and
				productivity savings, and
B) The
				standard local contribution calculated from statewide average property taxes,
				tuition and fees, and other local revenues.
4) Either State or local financial resources
				should be provided for all categories. The State should fund a lower percentage
				of the difference between statewide average costs and the standard local
				contribution for credit hours in general studies categories other than
				vocational and remedial;
5)
				Additional financing for categories more locally oriented and total costs for
				activities in the non-credit hour category can be funded from local taxes,
				tuition and fees, and other revenues, including the special source described in
				(f);
6) One cent less than the
				average statewide tax rate should be used in determining the standard local
				contribution. This amount is intended to support a portion of the difference
				between the statewide cost of locally-oriented instructional categories plus
				the total cost of the non-credit category;
7) Special grants should also be funded by
				the State, as follows:
A) Equalization grants
				should be provided for districts unable to raise the portion of the standard
				local contribution funded by property taxes, using the statewide median tax
				rate. This method of equalization is thus built into the basic flat grant
				funding approach, and
B) Grants for
				the educationally disadvantaged student should be provided to all districts for
				a portion of the added costs of such education.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
The Illinois Financial Assistance Act should be continued as
				  a program of direct grants to private colleges and universities. The formula
				  for awarding grants should be based on full-time-equivalent enrollments rather
				  than the enrollment of full-time students. In future years, the appropriation
				  for this Act should be increased in recognition of inflationary advances so
				  that this program continues to support a relatively constant proportion of
				  private college and university expenditures.

In addition to an appropriation for annual payout
				  requirements of the State Universities Retirement System, the State should
				  appropriate yearly additional funds to reduce the unfunded accrued liability of
				  the systems.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) The Board of
				Higher Education will continue to collect data about space in postsecondary
				education physical facilities and the utilization of space.
b) The Board of Higher Education will use
				space data more extensively in its review of requests from postsecondary
				education institutions for new buildings and new additions. In particular,
				requests for additional space will be analyzed to determine how they will
				affect the overall allocation of space in an institution, how they will affect
				the utilization of institutional space, and how they compare to similar
				institutions with respect to space available per student.
c) The Board of Higher Education will collect
				space data about facilities for the education of health professionals in its
				biennial space surveys and Resource Allocation and Management Program formats.
				To this end, the Board staff will develop formats for collecting data about
				space allocations and utilization which are appropriate to such special
				facilities.
d) The Board of Higher
				Education will continue to collect data about physical facilities in private
				colleges and universities.

				Board of Higher Education will approve additional space only for health
				professions education programs for which there is a clearly demonstrated need.
				Need should be demonstrated in terms of the total utilization and condition of
				existing space, and special program requirements.
b) The Board of Higher Education will
				consider as a low priority State participation in the debt retirement of
				revenue bonds for public university capital projects.
c) As a general rule, the Board of Higher
				Education will encourage governing boards to seek student participation in the
				process of approving capital improvements funded from student fees or income
				from student fees.
d) The Board of
				Higher Education will not approve construction of dormitories for commuter
				institutions.
e) The Board of
				Higher Education will consider as a low priority State participation in such
				facilities at community colleges as outdoor athletic and recreation fields,
				field houses, and spectator seating.
f) The Board of Higher Education will
				consider among others the following factors before approving performing arts
				facilities at public universities and community colleges: institutional program
				directions, student body composition, campus type, and total allocation of
				institutional space. Furthermore, universities and community colleges should
				show evidence of having explored the possibility of cooperative arrangements
				with other institutions and agencies for the use of such facilities.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) Colleges and
				universities should increase efforts to recruit and retain more minorities and
				women in fields of study where they are underrepresented, especially at the
				graduate level. Special attention also should be given to increasing the
				enrollment of underrepresented minorities in educational opportunity
				programs.
b) There should be
				improved career counseling, academic advising and retention programs,
				especially for minority and women students. Special courses should be arranged
				to help women and minorities overcome prior educational deficiencies.
c) Postsecondary education institutions
				should assure that women and minority students receive an equitable share of
				graduate student employment and financial aids. Where possible, institutions
				should place funds only in those banks that have equitable lending policies for
				all students.
