Washington State University faculty members are incensed over a proposal from the college administration to funnel $2 million to $3 million in university funds to the athletics-department budget. The WSU Faculty Senate recently released a statement to the WSU Board of Regents in response to the proposed funding. Vice President for Finance and Administration Stacy Pearson said it is unlikely the university could implement the subsidy for the upcoming 2021-22 fiscal year until budgets recover, so the funding is tentatively proposed for 2022-23.
