General Updates
• The Faculty Advisory Committee on the Budget Report has been added to the resource library. The FACB report outlines UCCS’s current financial challenges, driven by rising mandatory costs, limited state funding, declining enrollment, and reliance on one‑time reserves. It explains the multi‑year budget reduction plan, and describes the evaluation process, impacts, and strategies for stabilizing the campus’s long‑term fiscal health.
• A series of three campus open forums on various budget topics will be held in the coming weeks. Once the details of these events have been finalized, a notification will be sent to campus.
• The Frequently Asked Question section of the Healthy Campus Initiative website will be updated with new questions by the end of the week. The feedback webform remains open and the FAQ will continue to be updated weekly.
• The Office of Strategic Initiatives is currently conducting the analysis of the Healthy Campus Feedback survey and curating a report that reflects the over 650 recommendations provided in the survey.
