Board of Trustees; and that the president of the University be authorized, in accord with the needs of the University and the equitable interests involved, and within total income as it accrues to make such adjustments in items included in the budget as are needed, such adjustments to be covered in periodic reports to the Board of Trustees. Dr. Bazzani summarized this for the board noting that the budget was up 2.97 percent over last year, that 40 percent of it comes from State tax dollars and 7.9 percent of it comes from student tuition dollars. Dr. Bazzani also pointed out that the budget was primarily obligated to salaries and that any future cutbacks would be difficult to handle. Mrs. Shepherd, Mrs. Gravenhorst, and Mr. Hahn all cautioned about the need for contingency plans in case the current State surcharge, which amounts to $32 million in the University's budget, is cut or the Federal budget cuts University programs.
