268 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [July 26 T h e present total of $5411,551 differs from this estimate in the following respects: ( a ) T h e estimated income from student fees is $30,500 less than one-half of the total estimate for the biennium, since there will be a larger enrollment the second year. (b) T h e amount allocated to minor improvements, $81,850 per annum, or $163,700 for the biennium, is omitted from the salary and expense budget and presented separately. Appropriations recommended from the above described general income amount to $5,395,121, leaving an unapproved reserve of only $16,430 (page 270).
