The purpose of this research study was two-fold: (1) to investigate and compare the current funding models used throughout community colleges in the United States and (2) to use the information gathered in the research coupled with data supplied by Pennsylvania Community Colleges to determine an alternative funding formula for Pennsylvania Community Colleges.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The purpose of this research study was two-fold: (1) to investigate and compare the current funding models used throughout community colleges in the United States and (2) to use the information gathered in the research coupled with data supplied by Pennsylvania Community Colleges to determine an alternative funding formula for Pennsylvania Community Colleges.
520 $a The current fiscal crisis in many states has brought to light the increased need for funding community colleges. Their enrollments, admission policy, and overall mission to educational values and community response are being threatened by the fiscal crisis. In Pennsylvania, the recent budget impasse for fiscal year 2004 was resolved in December 2003, a full six months into the budget year. Community colleges in the state stand to lose about $1 2 million based on the current funding formula.
520 $a Throughout their history community colleges have developed credit programs to meet the needs of students who transfer to four-year institutions and obtain certificate or diploma programs in occupational or technology fields. Additionally, they provide non-credit programs to meet the community needs as well as workforce development programs in the business community and basic skills such as adult literacy training. All these programs require a consistent level of funding to meet the operational and student service requirements that the participants expect.
520 $a There are several funding formulas used throughout the community college sector ranging from a lump-sum negotiated budgeted amount, to full-time equivalent (FTE) rate or unit based allocations, and allocations based on performance indicators. All funding formulas have their advantages and disadvantages that must be weighed against the formula allocation and the benefit to the college. This research study points out the advantages and disadvantages of the current formulas and uses the best practices to determine an appropriate formula for Pennsylvania Community Colleges.
520 $a According to the information obtained during the statewide research, the three primary formulas represented are: (1) modified performance formulas, (2) lump sum or negotiated budget formulas, and (3) unit based formulas. Each segment experienced different comparative information related to funding resources available from state, local and student areas. The survey results from the Chief Business Officers indicated a limited familiarity with performance funding while highly recommending the continued use of the FTE enrollment based formula---with enhancements.
520 $a The equation presented in this research study recommends the continued use of FTE enrollments as the base appropriation and enhancements such as: (1) an excess credit hour reimbursement for currently un-reimbursed credit hours, (2) a program cost stipend increase for high priority special initiatives such as nursing, (3) a remedial program stipend, and (4) a performance incentive for job placement.
