Recap of 2009• Difficult actions were required– Froze salaries– Cut wide range of operating costs, one-time and

recurring = $65M– Held positions open – peak of 600+– Stabilized pension funding, but required employee

contributions– 47 positions vacant or eliminated at System– Pursuing shared services – 3-5 year project– Avoided costs—supply chain, renegotiation of

14

Recap of 2009We embraced the challenging national issues

• Accountability for student learning (e.g., outcomes)• Access and student success• Price of tuition• Budgets and funding (states’ fiscal crisis)• Student aid policy• Aligning the P-20 education system• Tax policies, benefits• eLearning• Diversity• Competition from for-profit institutions

15

Looking ahead…2010 and beyondThe recession challenge continues

• As of January, State’s revenues are off 10-11 %• Governor’s budget for 2011 reduces 2010 level

by $24M on “core” and $15.5M on “other curator programs” (approximately 30%)

• New mandates or new fixed costs add $25M to our funding requirements

16

Looking ahead…2010 and beyondThe recession challenge continues

• In 2012 additional federal stimulus support goes away ($24M)—will State revenues have recovered?– How will cuts to date affect our mission?– What plans should we make now for 2012?– Have we done all we can to collaborate, to share

resources, to be efficient?

17

Looking ahead…2010 and beyond

• Despite these challenges, nationally and across our State, we are investing in Missouri!– $330M new bonding for projects– Over $2M in economic development– Over $700K in eLearning to create new capabilities– By foregoing tuition increases (‘10 and ‘11)• If adjusted only for inflation, we will have invested more

than $70M over 5 years in our students!

• This can “Make a Difference”!

18

Looking ahead…2010 and beyond

• We will continue to invest in Missouri and take prudent risk to help the State’s recovery and leverage the University’s unique capability.

• Announcing today:– We will invest up to $5M over next 3 years in our

researchers and those who wish to align with us to start up new companies and grow new jobs

– We believe we can help “Make a Difference”!
