Cash balances were decoupled from units in FY 04!Were start-up costs of units reimbursed by MAPS?
Unclear! Note that this does not impact the deficit.
I tell our new assistant professors that they cannot present papers at major conferences; I refuse to let our lecture demonstration technicians replace student workers; I turn down requests for matching funds for faculty proposals; I nickel-and-dime the faculty and staff over Xeroxing charges, phone calls, postage and supplies; I have no discretionary money to handle contingencies or to take advantage of opportunities. The patience of my faculty is wearing thin and the general level of department bickering is rising.

REASONS TO BE OPTIMISTIC!
MAPS INTERNAL DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS
The college will pay for faculty salaries and benefits, a few special projects (e.g. LBT ~1.7 M), deficit reduction (?), and college office (~1.7 M). Nearly all remaining funds will be dispersed by formula to the 6 departments. Special projects will be reviewed by the MAPS Office and Chairs.
