9th Annual UIC Leadership RetreatTHE PRIVATE-PUBLIC CONTINUUM & A CHANGING UIC Lon S. Kaufman VCAA/Provost August 18, 2011
WE ARE THOUGHTFUL STEWARDS OF OUR RESOURCES
THE CURRENT SITUATION • End of FY 2006 155 units had deficits totaling $50 M End of FY 2010 17 units had deficits totally $ 19 M • All Colleges are running in the black • The campus has sufficient CASH reserves to cover a major rescission.
DECENTRALIZING - FUNDS FLOW TUITION - Colleges receive 75% of the tuition revenue. ICR - College share increased from 30% to 47.5%. ICR - Revenue to VCR and VCAS linked to research growth. RA tuition remission - College share increased from 50% to 75%. GA TUITION - Employer compensates home college for tuition waiver. CROSS-COLLEGE INSTRUCTION - Colleges compensate each other. USAGE CHARGE - Units that incur deficits pay an interest charge. RENT LESS - Units come back to campus; use the rent to renovate. CENTERS - Shared investment; Colleges, Provost, VCR, VPHA SPACE ECONOMY - Colleges share in cost or savings in O&M, & utilities.
WE INVESTED OUR FUNDS IN THE COLLEGES • THE COLLEGES HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN GARNERING EXTERNAL RECOGNITION IN THE FORM OF ADDITIONAL RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED FUNDS: GRANTS, SELF-SUPPORTING ENTERPRISES, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTIES, SATISFIED STUDENTS, HIGHER RANKINGS. • WE HAVE ATTEMPTED A SIMILAR INVESTMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT WITH EQUAL SUCCESS.
WE ARE NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET …
STATE OF ILLINOIS • Structural gap of as much as 7 billion dollars • Tax increase helped but did not close the budget gap • Dependency on economic growth • Pension issue remain unresolved

SOME OF THE ISSUES EFFECTING UIC IN FY 11 • Uncertainty regarding retirements • Uncertainty regarding state budget and rescissions • Uncertainty regarding our budget and rescissions • Conversions from Academic Professional to Civil Service • Aggressive ARR and One University agendas • The relationship of the medical center to campus • Three years of no raises
CONSEQUENCES OF THESE ISSUES • Loss in a number of key senior staff • Loss in a number of senior faculty • Difficulty in specifying budget targets for the colleges in FY 12 • New administrative structures • Loss of trust • Raises in AY 2012 • Faculty union in 2012 (?)
WE ACT MORE LIKE A PRIVATE UNIVERSITY THAN IN THE PAST & WE ARE MORE ENTREPRENEURIAL THAN IN THE PAST
WITH RESPECT TO RESOURCES • Our tuition income (IF; Income Fund) will exceed our state allocation (GRF: General Revenue Fund) for the first time this fiscal year. • Our restricted funds (grants, contracts, self- supporting) exceed our unrestricted funds (tuition and state) by about two-fold. • Our Self-Supporting funds are our single largest resource and close to half our total resources. • Self-Supporting operations are growing at a rate matched only by tuition.

INVESTING IN OUR INFRASTRUCTUREDEFERRED MAINTENANCECAPITAL INVESTMENT
CAPITAL FUNDING – DEFERRED MAINTENANCE • 10 years of no capital funding from state • Alternative funding options – certificates of participation, student fees, internal reallocation • Challenge of addressing the most egregious of the deferred maintenance • Sustainability – energy- lights – photovoltaic's – geothermal • Shrink the physical footprint – reduce rental space & eliminate aging facilities
OUR NEXT CHALLENGE IN THIS ARENA: BALANCING OUR U of I & UIC MISSIONS WITH OUR GROWING ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND PRIVATIZATION
How will we continue to assure access in a tuition driven world? • How will we assure a better student population means greater diversity – of all sorts – and not simply a bigger ACT score? • How will we continue to assure excellence and purity in research, creativity, and discovery in an entrepreneurial model? • How will we value and measure the value of research, creativity, and discovery that cannot be measured by dollars- either directly or indirectly? • How will we value a continuum of research, creativity, discovery that extends beyond the edges of campus and into our communities- be it a physical community such as the surrounding neighborhoods, a functionally based community such as CPS, city governments or the market place, a sister community such as the underserved communities throughout the world, or a virtual community as we find in today’s global economy?
