Some substantive information coming from the Sac State student newspaper.
Sacramento is noted for running a serious deficit. Until this football season, the revenue simply wasn't coming in. Can they sustain this season going forward? Will they ever get a semi-real arena built?
This has to be said... Portland State is getting an allocation PERCENTAGE nearly as big as Sac State, and yet get to claim a surplus? Public schools are not supposed to have a problem spending the money they get. Obviously, this information isn't detailed enough, and there could be a rational explanation for this (my main assumption is that this is fiscal year data... and general AD practice of which I'm sort of aware is to not be able to carry the money over to the next year). This data kind of fails a smell test here, or someone isn't doing their job.
