							        Historical Overview of
    Strategic University Indicators


Presentation to the University Faculty Senate
                 March 2008
   The following chart displays student credit hours per FTE faculty,
    by college, for Fall 1997, 2005, and 2006. Fall 1997 and 2005 data
    are taken from the University Budget Support Notebook. Fall 2006
    data are extracted from PeopleSoft UDSIS and HR modules.

   The Office of Institutional Research and planning is currently
    developing a PeopleSoft-based version of the Budget Support
    Notebook. Fall 2006 data should be viewed as unaudited. The
    verification process and tools historically associated with the
    Budget Support Notebooks are currently in development in the
    PeopleSoft environment, and Fall 2007 data will be made available
    as soon as they can be verified and audited.

   The Fall 2006 increase in SCH/FTE Faculty in the College of
    Marine Studies is the result of the transfer of the Department of
    Geology from the College of Arts and Sciences to Marine Studies.
