The average age for all WIU undergraduate students is22.7, while the average age for graduate students is 33.9. Tables 30 and 31 show agebreakdowns for on-campus and all off-campus students.

Housing occupancy in residence halls (Table 32 and Figure 10) increased from4,615 in 2000 to 4,810 in 2001. Total living off-campus increased from 5,392 in 2000 to5,460 in 2001.

Table 33 shows total student credit hours produced by fiscal year and level. Figure11 shows student credit hours produced by each of the four colleges for FY2001.

The tuition and fee guarantee began for all undergraduate students entering theUniversity in Fall 1999. In-state undergraduate annual tuition increased from $2,812 in2000-01 to $2,982 in 2001-02. This tuition will remain in effect for students entering Fall2001 for four years, as long as the student maintains continuous enrollment (Table 34 andFigure 12). WIU tuition increased 10 of the last 12 years. Tuition did not change from1989-90 to 1990-91 and from 1992-93 to 1993-94. Students experienced the largestincrease in fees from 1996-97 to 1997-98 (up 19.1%). This increase was partially due tothe cost of the new student recreation center.

Survey of 2000 Baccalaureate Degree Recipients One Year Out

During the 2000 spring and summer semesters, the Office of Institutional

Research and Planning conducted a 1-year out survey of all 2000 baccalaureate degree recipients.

Almost 96 percent indicated that they felt “strongly positive”, “positive” or “somewhat positive” toward the University, while over 92 percent indicated they felt “strongly positive”, “positive” or “somewhat positive” toward their bachelor’s degree major.

Over 77 percent percent indicated they are employed full-time, while 12 percent are employed part-time, and 89 percent said they are “very satisfied”, “satisfied”, or “somewhat satisfied” with their current job. Almost 77 percent indicated that their current job was “closely related” or “related” to their bachelor’s degree major. The graph below displays the employer categories.

FACULTY ACTIVITY, COST COMPARISONS AND WIU APPROPRIATIONS

Faculty loads (Table 45 and Figure 14) show the student credit hours (SCH) perfaculty staff year (SY) for total and by student level for FY1991-FY2001.

Table 46 shows the total number of faculty staff years by college for the last fivefiscal years. The table further divides the staff years between instruction, public serviceand organized research. The distribution of faculty activity in Figure 15 shows the numberof staff years assigned to public service and organized research for FY1997-FY2001.

Western Illinois University cost comparisons based on the Illinois Board of HigherEducation Discipline Cost Study are shown in Table 47 and Figure 16. The comparativecost analysis indicates Western is, for the sixth year in a row, overfunded (1.5 percent). FY2001 information is not available at this time.

The FY1993-FY2002 state appropriations for WIU are shown in Table 48 andFigure 17. It appears that the upward movement of the income fund as a percent of thetotal appropriation has stabilized at approximately 32 percent.

Table 49 shows the FY1997-FY2002 state higher education appropriations for allIllinois public universities. The percent change in state higher education appropriationswas 27.4 percent from FY1997 to FY2002. From FY2001 to FY2002, appropriationsincreased 6.1 percent.
