Function During the 2011 General Session, the Legislature approved the consolidation of funding for Health Sciences at the University of Utah.

The funding includes $4.3 million from the Cigarette Tax Restricted Account, $4 million from the Tobacco Settlelment Restricted Account, and $3.1 million from the General Fund ($1.3 million one-time).
