Agency: Weber State University Line Item: Educationally Disadvantaged Function Each institution has an Educationally Disadvantaged line item. When this program was initiated in the 1971 General Session, it was approved with the charge "to be used for scholarships, tutoring, counseling, and related support services for educationally disadvantaged students . . ." The intent is to benefit "disadvantaged students, including minority students." The appropriated budget for the eight USHE institutions has increased from $100,000 in 1970 to $1.8 million today (FY 2013 Actual). Performance The Educationally Disadvantaged program students provides a transition to college experiences for traditionally underserved students at the lowest reasonable cost. These measures allow for the tracking of students served over time. The number served was reduced for 2013 because the program did not receive a grant for this year. The number of students advised decreased due to a staff vacancy. The number of disabled students served increased 17% over the prior year. ![]() ![]() ![]() Funding Detail For more detail about a particular source of finance or organizational unit, click a linked entry in the left column of the table(s) below.
