WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY 2004 FACT BOOK OFFICE OF UNIVERSITY PLANNING CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA 28723 (828) 227-7239 FOREWORD The Western Carolina University Fact Book is issued annually to provide a single source of information about the university. The Fact Book is designed to provide an overview of trends and patterns of data which characterize and affect the university. A more detailed version of the Fact Book is available on the Internet at http://planning.wcu.edu/. The 2004 Fact Book was compiled by the Office of University Planning. As with any complete statistical document, this information could not have been obtained without the assistance of the university community including the following offices: Office of the Provost/Academic Affairs, Admissions, Administration and Finance, Information Technology, Registrar, Research and Graduate Studies, and Student Affairs. The publication was also made possible through the professional work of the University Print Shop. Special thanks are also due to Mark Haskett for the donation of the cover photograph. Upon review of this document, we welcome comments and suggestions, and may be contacted by phone at (828) 227-7239 or by e-mail at KSTILES@EMAIL.WCU.EDU. The Office of University Planning Troy Barksdale Kay Hill Keith Stiles Kay Turpin Cover photograph: Copyright 2005, The cover photo of Western’s Millennial property acquisition, which is adjacent to the campus and stretches west along Little Savannah Road, was taken by the University’s photographer Mark Haskett in February, 2005. Inner photograph: The aerial shot by Mark Haskett includes a border and legend produced by Rubae Sander and the University’s Publications Department in cooperation with Tom Frazier in the Print Shop for display during the Millennial Initiative announcement on February 18, 2005. The 344-acre acquisition doubles the size of Western’s Cullowhee campus. It will enable the University to engage in public-private partnerships that enhance educational opportunities for students in high-tech programs and increase the ability of faculty to conduct cutting-edge research, while simultaneously promoting economic development for the region.

Organized research: Expenditures directly related to University recognized research, typically through faculty and staff research activities. Transfers: The movement of funds between university accounts to meet expenditures. EXTENSION - An office or division that oversees credit or non-credit instruction offered to non-traditional groups of students off-campus. Instruction offered on-campus (e.g., “evening college”) through an extension division is counted and funded as regular-term (resident credit) instruction. See Distance Education. FIRST-TIME FRESHMAN - A degree-seeking undergraduate student who has not enrolled in a prior semester either at Western Carolina University or at another university or college after high school graduation; a student who graduates from high school in the spring or summer and enrolls either here or at another college or university during that summer and enrolls at Western Carolina University for the next fall semester will be classified a “first-time freshman” during that fall semester. (See new undergraduate transfer.) FORMULA FUNDING MODEL - The process by which projected student credit hour enrollment change is funded. The model is based on a 12-cell matrix of instructional level [undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral] and disciplinary instructional areas [Category I (lower cost); Category 69 II; Category III; and Category IV (higher cost)]. Semester credit hours generated from each course are assigned to one cell based on course CIP code and level. 12-Cell Matrix of Instructional Level and Disciplinary Instructional Areas CIP Program Title 23 27 30 38 42 43 44 45 54 09 English Language and Literature/Letters Mathematics Multi/Interdisciplinary Studies Philosophy and Religion Psychology Protective Services Public Administration and Services Social Sciences and History History Communications 13 Education 16 Foreign Languages and Literatures CIP WCU Course Prefix ENGL MATH ASI, GERN, USI PAR PSY CJ EMGT, PA, SOCW ANTH, ASI, GEOG, PSC, SOC HIST CMCR, CMEM, CMHC, CMPM, CMPR, CMTD BK, CDS, COUN, CSP, EDAD, EDCD, EDCI, EDEL, EDHE, EDL, EDMG, EDPY, EDRD, EDSE, EDSU, ELMG, SPED CHER, FREN, GER, JPN, RUSS, SPAN Program Title 19 26 31 Home Economics Biological Sciences/Life Sciences Parks, Recreation, Leisure and Fitness Studies 52 Business Management and Administrative Services 03 11 15 40 50 Conservation and Renewable Natural Resources Computer and Information Sciences Engineering-Related Technologies Physical Sciences Visual and Performing Arts 51 Health Professions and Related Sciences 14 Engineering Funding Category (CIP Codes) Category 1 Category 2 Category 3 Category 4 WCU Course Prefix CDFR, CFS, CTM, FCS, FS, HT BIOL, SCI HEAL, PE, PRM, SM ACCT, BA, ECON, ENT, FIN, HR, IBUS, LAW, MBA, MGT, MKT, PM ES, NRM CIS, CS CM, ECET, ET, ID, IET, IT, MET, TEL AST, CHEM, GEOL, PHYS ART, CMTA, DA, IDES, MUS ATTR, CLS, EMC, ENVH, HEAL, HIA, HSCC, MHS, ND, NSG, RTH, PT ENGR Student Credit Hours (SCH) per Instructional Position Undergraduate Masters 643.72 171.44 487.37 249.94 364.88 160.93 230.52 102.45 Funding Category 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 Funding Category 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 Doctoral 138.41 146.74 122.95 70.71 FULL-TIME EQUIVALENT STUDENTS - The number of students determined by adding the number of full-time students and a proportion of the part-time students. The full-time equivalent (FTE) student number in the University of North Carolina is determined by the following formula: UNDERGRADUATE GRADUATE FTE STUDENT LOAD FTE STUDENT LOAD 1.00 12 or more credit hours 1.00 9 or more credit hours 0.75 9-11 credit hours 0.75 6-8 credit hours 0.50 6-8 credit hours 0.50 3-5 credit hours 0.25 0-5 credit hours 0.25 0-2 credit hours FULL-TIME STUDENT - A graduate student who has scheduled nine (9) or more credit hours for that semester. An undergraduate who has scheduled twelve (12) or more credit hours for that semester. GRADUATE-LEVEL CREDIT - Master’s level credit is granted for course prefixes numbered 500-799. Doctoral level credit is granted for course prefixes numbered 800-999. INSTRUCTIONAL FACULTY - Employees whose specific assignment is customarily made for the purpose of teaching and/or research, as based on Occupational Activities Categories, not budgeted FTE. 70 LOWER-LEVEL CREDIT - Credit hours generated in 100-299 numbered courses. The lower level courses refer to freshmen and sophomore level courses. NEW FRESHMAN - See first-time freshman. NEW UNDERGRADUATE TRANSFER STUDENT - A new student at Western Carolina University who has previously enrolled at another university or college after high school graduation and prior to the first enrollment at WCU; students who transfer to WCU during the previous summer school are classified as new transfer students that next fall semester. (See first-time freshmen.) PELL GRANT PROGRAM - The Pell Grant Program provides eligible undergraduate postsecondary students grant assistance with demonstrated financial need to help meet educational expenses. PERKINS LOAN PROGRAM (Formerly National Direct Student Loans) - This program provides low interest loans to eligible postsecondary students (undergraduate, graduate, or professional) with demonstrated financial need to help meet educational expenses. PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES - Persons whose assignments require a baccalaureate degree or its equivalent who are not reported in the “Executive, Administrative, and Managerial” or “Instructional Faculty” categories. Examples include librarians, counselors, computer analysts, etc.; who do not hold administrative positions or have faculty rank. REGULAR TERM - The regular academic year comprised of the fall and spring semesters; synonymous with instruction or SCHs delivered during this period. Does not include Distance Education instruction or SCHs or summer school SCHs. RESIDENT CENTERS - Located at UNC-Asheville and Cherokee. Though “off-campus,” the credit hours generated from WCU instruction at these locations is considered to be “on campus” for funding purposes. All other off-campus instruction generating credit hours is considered Distance Learning credit. RESIDENT CREDIT - Instruction delivered and SCHs generated by for-credit on-campus instructional activity, regardless of the office or department offering the instruction and the method of delivery. RESIDENT CREDIT HOUR - A credit value of a resident credit course. Resident credit courses are usually taught in on-campus classrooms. Courses taught by WCU faculty in UNC-Asheville classrooms and the Cherokee Center are also counted as resident credit courses. Resident credit hours generated, with the exception of “state-employee, tuition-free hours”, are used to calculate full-time equivalents (FTE) for state funding purposes. (See student credit hour and extension credit hour.) REVENUES - University revenues are defined as inflows of funds or other resources committed to the ongoing operation and mission of the University. For financial reporting purposes, revenues are reported according to the primary source of these resources. State appropriations: Funds provided the University from the State of North Carolina’s General Fund. Auxiliary Enterprises: Funds generated from University operations organized to provide goods or services to students, faculty and staff. Examples are food services and the bookstore. Tuition & fees: Charges for education determined by individual universities and the UNC system. Gifts, contracts and grants: Funds provided from grant or contractual arrangements with various federal, state or local governments or private agencies. Other sources: This category includes all other sources of University funds not identified elsewhere. SERVICE/MAINTENANCE EMPLOYEES - Persons whose assignments require limited degrees of previously acquired skills and knowledge; includes cafeteria and restaurant workers, custodial personnel, grounds keepers, construction laborers, security personnel, etc. SKILLED CRAFTS EMPLOYEES - Persons whose assignments typically require special manual skills and a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of the processes involved in the work; examples include mechanics and repairmen, electricians, skilled machinists, carpenters, etc. STUDENT CREDIT HOUR - A unit by which an institution may measure its course work. The number of credit hours assigned to a course is usually defined by the number of hours per week in class. One credit hour is usually assigned to a class that meets 50 minutes a week over a period of a semester; in laboratory, field works, drawing, music, practical arts, physical education or similar types of instruction, one credit hour is assigned for a session that meets 2-4 hours a week for a semester. STUDENT CREDIT HOURS - These are the hours generated by units such as departments and colleges and are determined by (1) multiplying the number of credit hours for a course by the number of students in that course, and (2) aggregating these numbers for all of the courses taught by that unit. SUMMER TERM - An instructional period starting and ending sometime between mid-May and the end of August. Not included in Regular Term/Resident Credit instruction or SCHs. See Resident Credit, Regular Term, Distance Education. TECHNICAL AND PARAPROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES - Persons whose assignments require specialized knowledge or skills which may be acquired through experience or academic work such as is offered in many two-year technical institutes, community colleges, junior colleges, or through equivalent on-the-job training. UPPER-LEVEL CREDIT - Credit hours generated in 300-499 numbered courses. Upper-level courses refer to junior and senior level courses. 71
