2015-16 Budget Priorities Process: Approved One-Time Requests
WCU Budget Office, March 2015
Process
The one-time funding allocation process began with one-time requests originating at the department level.
These requests were finalized by division after a series of open hearings. The division requests were presented
at a campus hearing, discussed at a Joint Meeting with Chancellors Leadership Council and the Budget Advisory
Committee, and then considered by campus leadership for allocation.
Requests
The requests for one-time funding from divisions can be found at budgetprocess.wcu.edu.
Requests totaled approximately $7.3 million
One-Time Funding Allocations
Funding is being strategically implemented in current fiscal year 2014-15 and in next fiscal year 2015-16 using both
State budget availability and Education & Technology fee revenues. The approved items total $3.6 million, or 50% of
the actual items requested during the budget process. The approved items concentrate on instructional technology,
including equipment, supplies, and infrastructure. Other items include minor renovations, and safety and security needs.
Please note that items and amounts may change depending on scheduling, changing needs, and funding availability.
