Outreach costs will be totaled, sent to Bennett
A response to a request for information about off-campus programs made by Governor Robert F. Bennett will be finished by next spring, and of continuing education, said yesterday.
Bennett had requested course listings and locations of all off-campus courses offered by the University of Kansas and the total cost at each location.
About $2 million was spent last year by the University to help educate 5,708 Kansas residents in 157 cities throughout Kansas, Walker said.
Although Bennett didn't request a total of all-off-campus course costs, Walker said that a total would be about half of the $24 million in operating expense of continuing education.
The continuing education department offered 850 credit and non-credit events—seminars, mini-assessments, conferences, for special groups and courses—last year.
Walker said that fees collected from students enrolled in continuing education courses and grants paid 56.4 per cent of the total cost of the program. The remainder was supplied by aid from the state and other sources and profits from sales of course materials.
"We had thought that the self-supporting model could better afford the cost," Walker said.
The on-campus student fees pay about 30
per semester. The on-campus course
budget, be said.
But be cited a recent study made by the American Council on Education that said that self-supporting, off-campus students pay nearly $2 million in utilities paying fees as on-campus students.
And, Walker said, "Grants are becoming harder to come by."
Recently, the department of continuing education received a grant from HEW of $85,400. Walker said the grant would pay for the new continuing education building.
Because of the demand for off-campus classes, undergraduate enrollment in credit classes increased 32 per cent more than last year's 5.31. he said.
Graduate student enrollment in credit increased $ 58 per cent to 3,171 students.
Both Walker and Ronald K. Calgaard, vice chancellor for academic affairs, predicted an expansion of the continuing education program.
"We will probably expand areas in which we already have programs, as well as areas in which we don't."
Calgair said that the University was planning to offer a Masters of Business Administration degree through the continuing education office in Johnson county
