(a) Increasing the retention and progression of students toward timely credential or degree completion;
(b) Increasing the number and types of credentials and degrees earned by all types of students;

(4) This section establishes a comprehensive funding model for the public postsecondary education system to be implemented by the Council on Postsecondary Education. The funding model shall include a public university sector formula and a KCTCS sector formula.
(5) The funding formula for the public university sector shall:
(a) Recognize differences in missions and cost structures between research universities and comprehensive universities to ensure that neither are advantaged or disadvantaged during the first full year of implementation;

institution operations increases, decreases, or remains stable;
(c) Include an adjustment to minimize impact on smaller campuses as determined by the council; and
(d) Be constructed to achieve equilibrium, at which point the funding formula rewards rates of improvement above the sector average rate.

(b) Thirty-five percent (35) of total university allocable resources shall be distributed based on each university’s share of sector total student credit hours earned, excluding dual credit enrollment, weighted to account for cost differences by academic discipline and course level, such as lower and upper division baccalaureate, master’s, doctoral research, and doctoral professional; and
(c) Thirty percent (30) of total university allocable resources shall be distributed in support of vital campus operations as follows:
1. Ten percent (10) shall be distributed based on each university’s share of Category I and Category II square feet, net of research, nonclass laboratory, and open laboratory space, to support maintenance and operation of campus facilities and may include a space utilization factor as determined by the council in collaboration with the working group established in subsection (11) of this section;
2. Ten percent (10) shall be distributed based on each university’s share of total instruction and student services spending, net of maintenance and operation, to support campus administrative functions; and

institution operations increases, decreases, or remains stable;
(b) May include an adjustment to account for declining enrollment in some regions of the Commonwealth as determined by the council; and
(c) Shall be constructed to achieve equilibrium, at which point the funding formula rewards rates of improvement above the sector average rate.
(8) Funding for the KCTCS sector shall be distributed as follows:
