Divest to Invest and Generate Alternative Revenues to help Fund the Road Map

•  In order to implement the goals of the 2020 Road Map and to ensure that Clemson remains a strong institution far into the future, financial resources are vital. •  The road Map calls for both divestment and new revenue

generation. During the fifth year of the plan, the Will to Lead for Clemson continued on its goal of $1 billion, raising $688 million as of the end of FY15. •  During this same period, alumni giving rose with 22,341 alumni

giving to the University. IPTAY giving also reached $28.6 million.

81

Divest to Invest and Generate Alternative Revenues to help Fund the Road Map

•  Divestment and reallocation targets call for: •  Reducing personnel cost through attrition and selective outsourcing of non-

core functions; •  Reducing administrative and institutional support cost; •  Reducing state funding for units that can generate alternative revenues
