1 10% Across the Board Reductions to Op. Bud. of all Univ. Dept.
Category: Across the Board Reductions
Item Comment: While this strategy will spread the impact across all levels of university operations, it may adversely impact those departments and services that have
remained underfunded during the transition of TAMUCT from Tarleton State University. The impact is further magnified by the dramatic growth being experienced by the
university which will present a special challenge to maintaining current-level services. The reduction will notably decrease funds available for marketing and recruiting,
potentially limiting the university’s ability to continue to attract new students and to grow its way out of current funding constraints.

Item Comment: This strategy will impact the use and maintenance of current facilities, all of which are leased, while simultaneously impacting the university’s ability to
make lease payments. In addition, it may also adversely affect funding available for the installation of classroom technology not covered by TRB or PUF funding during the
construction of the university’s first permanent building
