White ~ The Woodlands, Texas ~ Expires February 1, 29 William Hearn Interim Vice President and CEO Texas A&M University at Galveston Texas A&M University at Galveston is the coastal branch campus of Texas A&M University and is statutorily designated as a special purpose institution dedicated to marine and maritime studies. Instructional, research and service programs focus specifically upon the scientific, technical, business, socioeconomic and environmental policy issues concerning the oceans, coastal regions and maritime industries. The mission of Texas A&M University at Galveston is accomplished through an integrated program of undergraduate and graduate education, maritime training for professional license programs, scholarly research in the marine sciences, engineering and humanities, and outreach programs for the public regarding marine issues, service to the maritime industry and K-12 science education. Texas A&M University at Galveston provides quality undergraduate and graduate education in support of maritime and marine programs and supervises students in graduate programs of Texas A&M University. Texas A&M University at Galveston serves as one of the six state maritime academies in the United States, is the only maritime academy located on the Gulf Coast, and is the only maritime academy that is a composite part of a major American research university. Students graduating from this program are licensed as either 3rd Mate Deck Officers or 3rd Assistant Engineering Officers in the United States Merchant Marine or ensigns in the United States Coast Guard or United States Navy. Additionally, maritime graduates currently serve as boat captains for inland waterways, pilots for major American and foreign harbors, and engineers for offshore energy exploration and development. Other graduates accept positions in government, industry and medical laboratories, government regulatory agencies, educational institutions (to include science teaching in public schools), and maritime industry administration. Many others enter medical, law and graduate schools. In preparation of this legislative request, Texas A&M University at Galveston has considered issues within the context of its special purpose mission and unique physical location. We are first and foremost asking for restoration of the mandated 5% budget reduction as exceptional items one and two. Additionally we are asking for 1% funding on our TRB expense which increases in FY The state requires us to absorb this increase in TRB expense (approximately $36K per year of the biennium) within the reduced bottom line base budget for FY This increased cost plus the fact that TRB expense was not 1% funded in the last session, equates to an increased TRB cost of almost $5K. Restoration of this reduction is requested in exceptional item three. In total TAMUG is facing a budget reduction per year of the biennium of $1.1M to $1.2M respectively. This major reduction coming on the back of the overall 12.5% cut realized in FY24 will at best require cutting back on core functions of Texas A&M University at Galveston. Although we will be able to deliver classes we will not be able to deliver them at the level we proudly advertise as the small class experience. Other areas such as academic support programs that include tutoring, mentoring, and remedial assistance services that affect our "at-risk" students the most may also be reduced. These cuts leave us no choice but to redirect the small but anticipated UAT growth income from much needed faculty additions and support for research to basic cost such as increases in utilities and other operating costs. At worst another University Authorized Tuition increase may be

6 718 ADMINISTRATOR'S STATEMENT Agency name: Texas A&M University at Galveston DATE: TIME: PAGE: 1/18/24 9:12:38AM 2 of 4 required to pay for our increased TRB expense and continuing increases in overall costs. Our management-to-staff ratio is very small and no other reductions can be absorbed by cutting personnel. Detailed below are specifics supporting TAMUG's funding requests in addition to the 5% restoration request and 1% funding for TRB costs request described here. We believe these are unique and necessary to the success of Texas A&M University at Galveston. Science Facility. The priority initiative being requested from the state by Texas A&M University at Galveston is tuition revenue bond (TRB) support for the construction of a new science building on Pelican Island. This new facility will replace the 1934 era Fort Crockett complex on Galveston Island, five miles from the main Mitchell Campus on Pelican Island. TAMUG s impressive growth (49 % in the past seven years) will be curtailed without this facility. The institution can not meet the Closing the Gaps target of 3 students without addressing the staggering space shortage that has ranked TAMUG first in classroom and laboratory usage in the state and necessitated converting a leased warehouse into classrooms and administrative space. We respectfully request that any TRB expense associated with this project be funded at 1% (see exceptional item four). Marine and Maritime Instruction. Due to the special purpose mission and designation of Texas A&M University at Galveston, the assumptions used to produce statewide formula rates are not appropriate for TAMUG. In 1994, at the direction of the legislature, the THECB, LBB and TAMU System established that these programs be linked to the instructional formula at a rate of 151%. Factors such as class size, scientific and technical nature of the majority of class courses, weather conditions and coastal location contribute to the higher costs of this unique delivery of educational services. During the past two budget years, the legislature has reduced this funding to below the 151% of formula. We are requesting restoration of this funding to the originally established level because TAMUG s marine and maritime education and research is critical to the state s economic and environmental health. Eighty-three per cent of TAMUG students are enrolled in science, engineering and transportation degree programs which address major ecological and management issues of the marine and maritime industries of the state and nation. Ship Operations and Maintenance. The original undergraduate program and a fundamental underpinning of Texas A&M University at Galveston is the Texas Maritime Academy, one of six state maritime academies, and the only such program serving the Gulf Coast. Graduates fill essential operational and administrative positions in Texas s maritime industry. This program is supported to a significant degree by the federal government. A federal training ship is provided to the state and all major maintenance of the ship is coordinated and paid for by the federal Maritime Administration (MARAD). In addition, MARAD has provided some student stipends and $2, to support the program. The state must provide funding for minor ship maintenance, fuel for the required summer training cruise, dock facilities and crew and support personnel for ship operations. Fuel costs alone have increased approximately 5% over FY 23 levels, and an increase in funding is requested to meet this and other rising costs. Marine Terminal Operations. As a marine and maritime special purpose institution, TAMUG s fleet of training and research vessels is mandatory to the teaching, research, training and outreach programs of the university. Boat and berthing area safety is also administered by this program. Due to increases in homeland security requirements costs associated with implementation have increaed. Escalating costs for fuel and frequent maintenance to address environmental conditions that erode docks and vessels necessitates increased funding. In FY24, 6 vessels and 1 barge were eliminated from the university fleet. Further reductions will adversely restrict the terminal's ability to support education, training, research, and outreach. Texas Institute of Oceanography. TAMUG ranks third among Texas public universities in research dollars expended per tenured and tenure track FTE faculty. State funds appropriated through the Texas Institute of Oceanography (TIO) leverage grants from federal and private sources at a rate of one to five. At this time of skyrocketing energy costs, coastal erosion and seafood safety concerns, it is imperative that Texas conducts coastal and ocean research. Funding is requested to restore this program to pre-budget cut levels. Dredging of the Dock Area. The dock area is used to berth the Texas Maritime Program training ship, Texas A&M at Galveston s small boat fleet, and Texas A&M University s research vessel. Dredging of the dock area and small boat basin is a basic and integral part of the support operation and maintenance of the TAMUG campus. Current funding has been cut to $35,941 for the FY24-25 biennium while actual costs are projected at $135, for FY26-27 biennium. Inadequate dredging funds result in reduced support for our basic teaching function.

7 718 ADMINISTRATOR'S STATEMENT Agency name: Texas A&M University at Galveston DATE: TIME: PAGE: 1/18/24 9:12:38AM 3 of 4 Other Special Items. In addition to the items listed above, TAMUG is requesting funding for a coastal erosion project, shore-side dock enhancements, and the Coastal Zone Laboratory. TAMUG has lost over 4 feet from its bayside shoreline since Correcting the erosion problem on the west side of the island has the potential of reducing the silting problem at the berthing site of the Texas Clipper II thus reducing dredging costs. As documented above, special item funding which constituted 58% of state appropriations to Texas A&M University at Galveston in the 4-5 biennium was absolutely essential to the basic operations of the institution. Dependence on this funding, however, resulted in TAMUG suffering one of the highest percentage budget cuts in the state. TAMUG has an incredible record of accomplishments during this period despite the cuts. 1) Most notable is the enrollment growth we have experienced from 21 to 24. During this period student fall head counts increased from 1366 to 162 and semester credit hours increased from 19,274 to 21,324. African-American enrollment in the fall of 21 was 15 students and increased to 48 for fall 24. During this same period, Hispanic enrollment grew from 12 to 148 students. Accommodating this growth required some remarkable measures at TAMUG. 2) In August 22, TAMUG lost the use of leased space at Galveston College on Galveston Island and faced a major space crisis. The university managed to execute a lease/purchase agreement to secure a vacated warehouse adjacent to the Mitchell Campus. We were able to build out approximately 5, square feet of space in 45 days to house admissions and records, financial management services, graduate and research administration, student financial aid, educational outreach, faculty and graduate student offices and classrooms. This facility needs considerable improvements yet but has enabled the university to support enrollment growth. 3) Other infrastructure deficiencies were tackled by creating dinning seating where the bookstore had been and building a screened dinning facility adjacent to the overcrowded dinning hall. Private contractors were encouraged to build student apartments. New classroom space was developed by moving administrative functions to the warehouse. The students opted to support new fees to develop a small waterfront recreation facility and the construction of a 38 sq ft student life center to restore some limited recreation space. These facilities were needed because campus television lounges, game rooms and student meeting spaces in the dormitories and student center were lost over the years to accommodate essential services. 4) During this biennium, TAMUG launched its first graduate program, a masters in Marine Resources Management, and commenced planning on three additional graduate degrees. Enrollment in the first program has already attracted 37 students, which compliments the 57 student graduate population from TAMU in residence in Galveston and taught by TAMUG faculty. 5) The TAMUG campus community is joyously watching the construction of the 58, square foot engineering building, the first new building on the campus in over ten years. TAMUG anticipates considerable growth in engineering enrollment with completion of this facility in January 25. To launch this growth, the campus initiated a new scholarship program for economically disadvantaged engineering students. This highly successful program was funded with National Science Foundation grants and private gifts. 6) Through adhering to a carefully prepared IT strategic plan and identifying learning outcomes as a top priority, all TAMUG classrooms have been equipped with state of the art teaching enhancements such as instructor computers, VCRs, and LCD projectors. New imaging technology will facilitate savings in paper costs and storage space. 7) Finally, no status report would be complete without recognizing the tremendous support being provided by TAMUG s educational outreach division in meeting the Texas mandate to improve K-12 science education. This year our outreach camp program celebrated its 1,th camper. With no state support, TAMUG s educational outreach division provides a plethora of science programs to children and teachers. Each summer approximately 9 students attend Sea Camp for a weeklong hands-on science program. In conjunction with Sea Camp, approximately 8 volunteer teachers are trained in enhanced science teaching. Every sixth grader in Galveston visits the campus each year for a day of science, and the campus has developed lesson plans and virtual science tours on the internet for use by teachers in their home

8 718 ADMINISTRATOR'S STATEMENT Agency name: Texas A&M University at Galveston DATE: TIME: PAGE: 1/18/24 9:12:38AM 4 of 4 classrooms. Science workshops were conducted in approximately 14 public and private schools this past year. Through private funding, a wetlands center pavilion was constructed this biennium as a launch point for nature trails through the campus wetlands area. TAMUG hosts large numbers of public school field trips providing science instruction in the marine and coastal environs of Galveston Island and adjacent areas using the wetlands center, campus vessels and graduate student guides. Texas A&M University at Galveston is a small but very unique institution serving Texas as a marine and maritime educational and research resource for a state with 3,359 miles of coastline and six of the top ten ports for inbound and outbound tonnage in the United States. The faculty, administration and staff of TAMUG are seriously dedicated to giving this great state an excellent return on every dollar invested.

It includes not only salaries and wages of those involved in the teaching functions, but those supporting the instructional program, such as deans, advisors, graduate assistants, and clerical staff. Additionally, salaries and wages to operate the library and purchase library materials such as books, journals, microforms, and computer-based information, plus binding costs, and other library operating costs are funded. Salaries, wages, and other costs to support the administration of the institution are included in this strategy, including business and fiscal management, executive management, human resources, development efforts, purchasing, and other functions of a general nature, which benefit the institution as a whole. Included are costs associated with providing student services such as admissions, registration, student financial aid, placement services, and counseling. The expenses in this strategy include those with funding provided through Teaching Experience Supplement (1-1-2), Growth Supplement (1-1-3), Marine and Maritime Instruction Enhancement (3-1-1), and Institutional Enhancement (3-4-4) strategies. *Not included are Designated Tuition expenditures (FY23-$927,888).

Enrollment can increase or decrease based on a multitude of factors including demographics, economics, weather conditions, and legal and political issues. The number of students available for enrolling into college is determined by demographic trends and personal economics. Availability of financial aid through federal and state sources, as well as philanthropic groups is impacted by the economic viability of the nation, state, and local areas. Actions by the legislature, such as the mandated state appropriation reductions of 24, coupled with continued increases in costs, may result in an increase of University Authorized Tuition in order to maintain current service levels. These increases impact prospective students ability to afford this institution, especially low-income students which, in turn, effects our ability to "Close the Gaps". Weather conditions, such as a colder than average winter or hotter than average summer may cause utility costs to soar, thus removing funds from the institutional programs. Because the campus is located near the Gulf of Mexico in Galveston, the campus is very vulnerable to a catastrophic hurricane. Pressure from peer universities has a dramatic effect on our ability to attract and retain high quality faculty. In short, our campus can be greatly affected by external factors. 3.A. Page 4 of 33
