The University of North Texas will have a balanced budget this upcoming fiscal year, with $543 million as budgeted income, and the same amount for expenditures, according to budget documents.

This is part of the $870 million total budget for the University of North Texas system, which was passed by the Board of Regents unanimously last week, with one amendment.

After presentations from UNT President Lane Rawlins, the board voted 6-3 to add an amendment to the budget that supports “the commitment of the UNT President of an additional $2.8 million in revenue and expenditure for the UNT Intercollegiate Athletics program and directs the Finance Committee to meet with the President immediately.”

V. Lane Rawlins has been great for the University of North Texas. I will be sorry to see him go. Hopefully he will have
input on the selection of our next president.

2.8.. Hmmm wonder if that is the baseball budget...

And the proposed 2014 athletic budget is $30.4 million.

Couple of tidbits about the proposed athletic dollar increase from the DRC MeanGreen blog.

There are some good numbers one can pull from the presentation, though. UNT’s proposed athletic budget for 2014 was $30.4 million, up from $27.6 million.

That figure seems pretty exact to me. It could be tied for UNT’s much talked about effort to add a baseball program.

I'm jealous of UNT's athletic budget

It has steadily grown the last few years.. I hope the trend continues. I would like to see it hit 40 in the next 5 years, but most will need to start coming from more alumni donations and hopefully greater season tickets sales

I'd like to see some winning programs, football and basketball (mens and womens), plus the addition of baseball, to justify the budget.

UAB has a 2.3 billion dollar budget

2.3 billion? Are you sure that's not for the entire UA system?


EDIT: That's got to be what it is. UA at Tuscaloosa doesn't even have anywhere near a $1 billion budget.

Quote:In all, UA administrators expect to get $775.3 million and spend $705.1 million in the coming fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1.

And reading the article, I think that quote may apply to the entire UA system, not just Tuscaloosa. Either way, I really don't think UAB has a $2.3 billion budget, or anything close to that.

UAB's budget is 2.3 Billion and UAB has a 5 Billion dollar economic impact on the state of Alabama each year.

the most recent I could find without looking too hard was off the UAB website and the operating expenses for the 2011-12 year was $2,625,670,734. Its too early for them to have published the 2012-2013 school year. you were right it was not 2.3 it was 2.6 Billion.

That's a pretty big hike over the past few years.

Quote:UAB’s projected 2010 operating expenses are $985 million and it anticipates total revenue to be $992 million.

As of 2011 report, UAB's consolidated budget in terms of revenues was, in fact, around $2.3 billion.

UAB has a very strong College of Medicine which generates tons of money and it helps drive the revenues in the budgetary process. Moreover, they are owners of one of the (if not the) largest hospitals in all of Alabama. The revenues derived from "hospital activities" amounted to 43% of UAB total revenues, which totals roughly $1 million of the $2.3 million. Very impressive indeed.

im not sure what he was looking at but it was not the entire budget. the 2009-10 operating expenses was $2,061,631,540. for 2010-2011 it was $2,254,589,884.

UAB's 2012-2013 budget was 2,822,882,658

It appears he was excluding the Medical College/Hospital budget. If you exclude the "University of Alabama Hospital" component/revenues/expenses, you would come up with an operating budget of the university very similar to the numbers the writer quoted, if not exactly.
