UNM 2017 Legislative Requests

Performance/Outcomes Funding Formula: Since the funding formula’s implementation five years ago, UNM has grown in every metric of the outcomes based formula. UNM strongly supports that the current metrics and calculations of the performance based formula be maintained, regardless of the current fiscal situation. Institutions need to be recognized for their efforts in improving outcomes for students.

Additionally, the University of New Mexico understands the state’s current fiscal situation, and requests that if there are to be cuts to the higher education sector, that they are fair and equitable across all institutions in the state. Additionally, we ask that institutions be allowed full flexibility to implement budget reductions.

Legislative Lottery Scholarship: UNM supports solvency of the lottery scholarship fund that is equitable for all students.

Capital Outlay: UNM accounts for 48% of the state’s total higher education FTEs as well as 32% of the total square footage devoted to teaching and research. UNM supports funding capital projects in proportion to an institutions’ size and student population.
