The Teaching program houses state funds received by the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app (°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app) throuogh the funding formula. The state appropriates these funds to the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app in a lump sum, which the Board of Regents distributes to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app institutions in accordance with system priorities and needs. The bulk of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app’s budget resides in this program which is mainly devoted to funding Resident Instruction activities at the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app institutions with some funding support for the Public Service Institutes.
