After meeting with the Provost of San Jose State University Andy Feinstein, they highly recommended hiring special consultant Deborah Brothwell, who helped identify their cost of instruction.  With the presidents, college deans and Budget Advisory Council support, Debbie was hired to identify cost of instruction for SFSU. Please see Debbie's first meeting with academic affairs community below.

In October 2016, Interim Provost Jennifer Summit invited our campus community to serve on the  Academic Affairs Budget Advisory Council from across the units and positions. The council includes two deans, three associate deans, two chairs, staff , an ASI student and the AVP from Administration & Finance. 

We invited the following constituents from across the CSU's to review their budget models and also gain a historical perspective of how the CSU budget is allocated. These included visits from:
