- Formula Funding of University Administration and Support. AIR Forum 1980 Paper. Cox, Robert S. Budgeting College Administration Comparative Analysis Cost Effectiveness Educational Finance Financial Support Funding Formulas Higher Education Library Expenditures Mathematical Formulas Operating Expenses Resource Allocation Simulation State Colleges Student Personnel Services The distribution of funds for university administration and support for a hypothetical state university system using 11 state funding formulas is reviewed. Data for a hypothetical system of 11 institutions of varying size and student level mix were used. The distributions for university administration and support include library support, student services, general administration, and general expense. These were compared with a measure of scale, or workload. In aggregate the formulas appeared to respond to both economies of scale and diseconomies of complexity although significant variation in the treatment of these issues by individual formulas appeared to exist.
