Athletic programs have improved and increased visibility on the Missoula campus during the past 10 years. How much additional state money has been used to support them?
Intercollegiate Athletics at the University has enjoyed unprecedented success over the past decade, which has increased local and national fan support. The components of the athletics budget have changed over time as well. Increased expenses, especially for grants, recruitment, travel and salaries have necessitated finding ways to meet rising costs. Over the past 10 years, the University has responded to this challenge by generating more revenue and raising private funds. As a result, the percentage of the athletics budget provided by state funds has decreased dramatically. The following breakdown of funding for Intercollegiate Athletics makes it clear that the University now relies less on state funds and more on student fees and generated funds to support an increasingly successful Intercollegiate Athletics program.
