Section 7. Expenditures of Public Degree-Granting Institutions: Introduction
Current-fund expenditures in both public 4-year and public 2-year degree-granting institutions are projected to increase in constant dollars between school years 2000–01 and 2013–14.
Three alternative sets of projections
Middle, low, and high sets of projections were produced for total current-fund expenditures, as well as for educational and general expenditures, for both public 4-year and public 2-year degree-granting institutions.
About the projections
Each set of projections is based on alternative assumptions concerning economic growth and receipts to state and local governments. Many other factors that may affect future expenditures were not considered in the production of these projections. See
appendix A for more details.
