Budget conference: USF lands more than $40M in supplemental funding ‘sprinkle list’

by The 100 Companies

The University of South Florida is set to get millions in supplemental funding for operational enhancements, as well as money for a new nursing facility at its Sarasota-Manatee campus, according to the House and Senate “sprinkle lists.”

The House included $14 million in nonrecurring operational enhancement funding on its sprinkle list, while the Senate provided $10 million for the same use in recurring funds, including things like attracting talent.

Allocated monies for operational support or enhancement essentially amount to discretionary funds.

The Senate’s supplemental funding list also includes $16.25 million in non-recurring funding for USF Sarasota-Manatee’s Academic STEM Nursing facility.
