In April 1991, the Board of Trustees approved the implementation of a differential tuition charge for extramural courses at the Urbana-Champaign campus. While creating greater equity among charges by student level, this program provides incremental revenue that will be used to increase faculty incentives for teaching extramural courses, improve student services, and expand course offerings for the part-time adult student. The unique costs associated with instructional requirements in the Institute of Aviation are addressed by specific charges for a number of courses. Charges differ based upon the type of equipment required, the frequency of its use, the instructional mode (classroom, flight simulator, aircraft, etc.), and so on. Annual reviews of aircraft and simulator operating expenses and other equipment training needs are conducted along with projected wage requirements for the next year. Corresponding adjustments are then made in course charges. For the 1995-96 academic year (including Summer Session 1995) current rates have been adjusted between 2.6 percent and 3.5 percent for materials and labor, and 4 percent for flight time, and 10 percent for insurance. Aviation 102 is a remedial non-credit course and students will be charged the total cost of the course. Aviation 224 and Aviation 291 are electives outside the core of the professional pilot programs and students will be charged for course materials that are provided. Aviation course charges proposed for 1995-96 are specified below: Course Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation Aviation FY 1995 $2 079 1 828 2 664 1 404 2 342 2 482 1 427 2 621 4 364 2 097 1 234 1 243 2 361 1812 943 697 Proposed, FY 1996 $2 212 1 952 2 841 1 494 2 492 2 641 1512 2 783 4 651 2 275 1 355 2 016 2 515 2 626 1 002 725 Percent Increase 6.4 6.8 6.6 6.4 6.4 6.4 6.0 6.2 6.6 8.5 9.8 62.2 6.5 44.9 6.3 4.0
