The Funding of Michigan Universities
نویسنده
چکیده
This comparison of state funding, while useful, is conceptually flawed, in that it promotes the assumption that all programs and thereby all students cost the same. A more interesting comparison is to look at state funding as a percent of total revenue. In Michigan this ranges from a high of 51% at Wayne State University to a low of 28% at the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor. Removing research institutions from this comparison still shows a range of state funding from 48% at Northern Michigan University to 31% at the University of Michigan – Dearborn. This is a remarkable disparity among institutions with similar missions.
