FY13 BUDGET REQUIREMENTS Maintaining Current Service Levels - Fixed Cost Requirements ATTACHMENT II Current Services Budget FY13 1. Description of Current Services Kenai Peninsula College provides multiple core services relating to UAA 2017, UAA Cabinet Strategic Guidance and UAA Core Themes. These services are: instruction, student support services, student life, faculty and staff development, Public Square for the Kenai Peninsula, and, to a lesser extent, research and scholarship. These core services are at the heart of each of the five major priorities of UAA 2017, UAA Cabinet Strategic Guidance and UAA Accreditation Core Themes. 2. Incremental Cost to Maintain Current Services (Excluding Compensation) FY13 New Base Budget Obligations: Utilities - up 7% (1) 23,000 Base General Fixed Costs Increases - up 2.9% 30,800 Total Fixed Costs $ 53,800 (1) Assuming no utility trigger mechanism 3. NGF Contribution Dependent upon G.F. $$ received to meet salary maintenance obligations, tuition revenues will contribute to meeting fixed cost increases. 4. Reduction of Service Current levels of service will be maintained by continuing efforts to find cost efficiencies and reductions. 5. Soft Funds in Support of Current Operations KPC has a very limited amount of soft funds which are dedicated to specific one-time needs. We do not have soft funds available to support our operating budget. 6. TVEP Funding TVEP funds have been used for the past 4 years to fund a very key instructional position in our Process Technology Program. Request for funding in this area continues to be our number one priority. If this requests remains unfunded, and the TVEP funds that are currently supporting it decline, KPC will be forced to redirect funds from other key programs and strategic goals in order to maintain this very crucial position. Please see attachment IV for further information. KPC has also received TVEP funds which have been allocated to specific one time projects. The reduction of such funds in the future would result in reallocation of funds from other priorities or postponement of needs until funding becomes available. 3

SOFT FUNDING SUPPORT DONATIONS – UA FOUNDATION FUNDS 450,000 400,000 350,000 Program Support Donations 300,000 Scholarships 250,000 200,000 Campus Support 150,000 100,000 50,000 - FY07 FY08 FY09 FY10 FY11 FY12 as of Program Support 29,535 155,002 141,222 180,950 380,782 104,025 04-02-12 Scholarships 4,105 5,942 22,696 57,533 60,352 175,430 Campus Support 851 18,784 19,801 18,701 11,277 147,683 KPC has established a good working partnership with the UA Foundation for planned giving inquiries and has received training on the foundation’s Raiser’s Edge database to enhance tracking and follow up of current donors. FY12 data reflects receipts as of 4/2/12, including in-kind donations. Highlights of recent donor activity include additional endowed scholarship funding from Icicle Seafoods, scholarship funding from Alyeska Pipeline Service Company and a significant land donation with future sales dedicated to scholarship funding and campus “best needs” support; these funds are indicated in the graph above. KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGH APPROPRIATION FY13 Funding: $646.3 FY13 Funding Request - $646.3 FUNDING SEVEN CORE POSI T IONS Tuition Waivers Kenai River  Developmental Advising – $123.9 Campus College Wide KRC & College Wide $256.2  Library Tech – KBC Developmental  Registration Tech – KBC Advising $42.4  Student Advisor – KBC  Instructional support – KBC Kachemak Bay Seward Extension Career Coordinator – KRC  Campus Site Evening Coordinator – KRC $204.8 $19.0   KPC was seriously threatened with zero funding for FY12 but after focused promotional activities by the KRC Student Government and the public at large, funding was restored in the final assembly budget. At this time, $646.3 in funding has been requested by the borough mayor of the borough assembly for FY13. The assembly will vote on the budget in early June. Loss of support resulting in loss of, or decreased funding levels would be financially devastating. As scarce resources become available, KPC is slowly institutionalizing these positions. TITLE III STRENGTHENING INSTITUTIONS  KPC’s Title III grant, now in year 4, continues to make outstanding progress developing access to high demand programs and student support services via E-Learning/hybrid delivery.  Positions institutionalized in FY13 – 60% – eLearning Developer; 35% Activity Director; 60% Student Success Developer. OTHER RESTRICTED FUNDS/TVEP FUNDS  KPC and CTC’s TAACCCT grant, now in year 1, supports creation of open -access developmental math, English and instructional technology modules and also the delivery of the AET certificate across multiple community campuses from Anchorage. 4  Other restricted funds support program-specific ABE/GED instruction and small grants directed towards the self- support “Kachemak Bay Writer’s Conference” program.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES HEADCOUNT & STUDENT CREDIT HOURS (OPENING FREEZE 201201) I.  Fall 07-Spring 12: Academic HC ↑ 64 % and Total Academic SCH > ↑ 57 % 1 . FTEs > ↑ 60.9 % . 2 20000 15406 15037 13669 13141 12901 12270 15000 10707 10137 9708 9567 10000 2784 2596 5000 2194 2338 1890 1983 2146 1668 1699 1580 0 Fall 2007 Spring Fall 2008 Spring Fall 2009 Spring Fall 2010 Spring Fall 2011 Spring 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 II. RETENTION  60.2%--national avg-53.7%. Since AY01, retention rate has been 55%-66%. Lack of funding for student success; KBC advisor, remedial instructors. o Large increase in E-Learning courses that nationally have a lower retention rate is impacting o this ; however, we have implemented the national “Quality Matters” program and other tools to increase retention rates in E-Learning courses.  Projection: gradual improvement as Title III efforts continue to gain traction to increase retention in E-Learning classes and also as TAACCCT grant developmental modules provide students additional support.  Measures FTFT — not accurate measure for community campuses, small cohorts, therefore below is KPC’s Learning Goal Status from the Student Learning Progress Model (Gary Rice). Total First-Time Students Fall 2001 Cohort 8.3 17.2 Graduated 12.8 Transferred out before Grad Not Returned Non-Degree Substantial Progress 28.2 Non-Degree Progress 30.5 Non-Degree No Progress 3 After ten years, 89% of KPC students have met or are progressing toward their goal. III. HIGH DEMAND JOB DEGREES AWARDED  Limiting factors: instructors, classrooms, labs — more faculty, staff, space=more graduates. All KPC programmatic priorities would positively impact this metric.  Projection: Increase of 4-6 per year FY13-FY15.
