Montana State University Billings to get $200K less than last year in performance funding - MATT HOFFMAN, Billings Gazette

Montana State University Billings will take a $200,000-plus hit in state performance funding compared to last year, earning an even smaller share of the metric-based money amid an enrollment crisis. The school was eligible for $1.4 million based on how degrees awarded and student retention stack up compared to three-year averages, according to data presented at Thursday's Board of Regents meeting. MSUB will earn only about $550,000 — 39 percent of the money, the lowest share in the university system by far. http://billingsgazette.com/news/local/montana-state-university-billings-to-get-k-less-than-last/article_7dc46df9-43a7-518b-bcc1-636b9f056b3e.html
