Thank you to everyone who attended the University Resources and Planning Committee (URPC)’s Open Forum for the campus community this past Tuesday, October 22, 2024. The purpose of the forum was to introduce University budgeting concepts, processes, timelines, and the functions of the URPC and provide information on the state of the budget at Cal Poly Humboldt, the CSU, and the state. If you missed it, you can view the presentation here.  

Your next opportunity to engage with the URPC is this Friday, the start of the URPC’s Divisional Budget Update Series for the campus community. As you may remember last Spring, the URPC asked representatives from each division to present to the URPC and campus about their priorities, plans for budget reductions, and possible implications. The campus community asked divisions at the time to report back in the Fall on what reductions were made and the current implications of those reductions.

Friday, Nov. 1, 2024- URPC meets from 1 - 2:30 p.m.
