Representatives of the university did not say how much was planned for in the annual budget or how much more it spent than anticipated during the fall semester. Among the expenses were COVID-19 tests, cleaning supplies and the personal protection equipment required to open campus safely. “While we did spend more money than anticipated on the COVID-related expenses, we’re hoping by the end of the year, it’ll be offset by reduction [of] expenses,” Volety said. “You can’t really look at it at this point in time, but by the end of the fiscal year, I think it’ll even out.”
