It is the purpose of this study to conduct a detailed inquiry into the reorganization of the governmental machinery for administering State financial affairs as it effects State higher education in each of the 48 States. Among the pertinent questions to be answered are the following: (1) In which of the States has the centralized fiscal control been made applicable to State higher educational institutions?; and (2) What are the specific fiscal powers conferred on the Governor or some State central executive agency over the institutions and what procedures are prescribed for enforcing them? The material comprising the inquiry will be presented under three general topics representing the main phases of fiscal control vested in the Governor or some other State executive agency. These topics are: (1) Control over the appropriations of the institutions before made by the State legislature; (2) Control over the appropriations of the institutions after made by the State legislature; and (3) Control over the post-auditing of the financial accounts of the institutions. The principal source of the material upon which the study is based was the sections of the legal codes of the several States relating the reorganization of State fiscal machinery. Individual sections contain footnotes. (Contains 12 tables.) [Best copy available has been provided.].

This book takes an applied approach to budgeting and fiscal administration in higher education. It presents new and aspiring leaders in higher education and student affairs with the fundamental knowledge and skills to supervise, analyze, and implement budgets that make the best and most effective use of limited resources. By exploring the foundational elements of fiscal administration and outlining the process step-by-step, this text carefully takes leaders through real-world examples and includes myriad opportunities for application. Indeed, a major goal of this text is to provide readers with a set of technical skills that can be applied across a range of contexts. Our expectation is that current and future higher education and student affairs leaders will find this text invaluable in their day-to-day work and that the material presented here will help them engage in fruitful decisions around the allocation of scare resources.
