University Budget Committee

Purpose of the Committee

The University Budget Committee (“UBC”) is charged with serving as a deliberative body that provides the San Francisco State University President with ongoing advice and recommendations related to budget policy, planning, and assessment. The UBC aims to ensure that the University’s priorities are reflected in its budget through coordinated consultation, discussion, education, and outreach to the University community. The UBC is comprised of SF State faculty, staff, students and administrators. Members of the UBC, with a shared commitment to transparency in fiscal decision-making, serve to inform the University and community about budget matters, and bring concerns of the students, faculty and staff to the administration.

The UBC generally meets monthly, and holds additional meetings as needed.  Meeting dates are posted below and published in CampusMemo. All meetings are open to the public.

University Budget Committee creates “office hours”

Members of the University Budget Committee (UBC) invite you to attend Spring “office hours” once a month, for all campus employees and students to provide feedback on UBC meetings, offer ideas for future meetings, discuss university fund-related questions, etc. This is an opportunity to dialogue directly with your UBC member-peers, as sessions are offered specifically for staff, faculty, students and MPPs. The dates are on Fridays: March 19, April 16 and May 21, all from 10:00AM – 11:00AM via Zoom. These virtual “office hour” sessions and UBC meetings welcome persons with disabilities and may provide reasonable accommodations upon request. RSVP for your session using Qualtrics.
