| Summary: | This report presents staff recommendations of the Illinois Board of Higher Education concerning budget recommendations for higher education operations and grants for fiscal year 1999. General funds recommendations total $2,207.1 million, an increase of 6.1 percent over 1998 appropriations. Recommendations are also included for locally-held university income funds and other state appropriated funds. New state resources are recommended for the following high priority areas: integrating technology, teaching, and learning; preparing Illinois' workforce; strengthening the quality of undergraduate education; improving student access and affordability; protecting the state's public colleges and universities' physical facilities from deterioration; fostering research and economic development; and strengthening the academic base of institutions. Separate sections of text and data tables provide more information and financial detail on: preparing for the 21st century, public universities, community colleges, the Illinois Student Assistance Commission, grant programs, and agencies and retirement. Related higher education data are appended in tables which detail: general funds expenditures by sector, expenditures from 1970 to 1998, comparison of tuition/fees with economic indicators (1985-1998), annual tuition rates at Illinois public universities, and cost study credit hours at Illinois institutions of higher education.
