FY 2011 Equity in Athletics Financial Disclosure . . .

[sonofdaxjones]

Why on earth is Baylor releasing their numbers?

Any school that gets any kind of federal funds has to put out an Equity in Athletics report.

That tells me we're not spending enough on blow and hookers for recruits.

Don't forget the abortions and bounties on opposing QBs

K-State:

Gross Revenues: $68.375 Million

Expenses:  $45.479 Million

Net Revenues:  $23.395 Million

Interesting.  I suspect a large part of our revenue increase this year (compared to last year) is due to the fundraising for the basketball facility.

I don't think donations have anything to do with this figure

[sonofdaxjones]

Yeah, K-State's numbers include Ahearn Fund donations, I don't know if it includes Capital Giving donations.   Also keep in mind that many capital giving are commitments or pledges to give, they don't often hand over the big checks all at once.

DNR this but looked like something Dax reads.

Alumni voices are critical to the KU Alumni Association’s mission to strengthen the University of Kansas. One of our most important programs is Jayhawks for Higher Education (JHE), a statewide network of alumni and friends who communicate the needs of KU and higher education to the Kansas Legislature. In recent years, JHE members have helped secure state funding for vital initiatives, including:

• the KU School of Pharmacy expansion to help meet a statewide need for pharmacists
• support for the KU Cancer Center’s quest for National Cancer Institute designation
• a 10-year plan to increase the number of engineering graduates in Kansas by 60 percent

Please add your voice to our advocacy efforts by joining JHE. Throughout the legislative session, you will receive brief, timely email updates from the Alumni Association. At key points, we will ask you to contact lawmakers regarding a specific issue. We will provide talking points, and our online tools make it easy to communicate directly with your lawmakers. Please click here to join today.

KU’s 2012 legislative agenda will include the following critical investments:

•  “Foundation Faculty” to maintain the University’s prestigious membership in the Association of American Universities and continue KU’s quest for higher national rankings
• Continued support for the KU Cancer Center
• Medical education funding to provide additional physicians for our state
• A 2.8 percent increase in funding of financial aid for students at all Regents universities
• Procedural or policy changes to help the University continue increasing its operational efficiency

Please help us ensure that KU’s interests advance in the Legislature. Thank you for Jayhawk loyalty.

Rock Chalk!
