UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN


  All monies collected by the teachers colleges are paid into the general
fund of the State Treasury, except those which come from the self
supporting activities. These are deposited to the credit of the activity
which produces them and are automatically appropriated to them. All
appropriations are made by the legislature from the general fund of
the state. About 80 percent of the funds so appropriated come from
tax sources. The Legislature of 1857 created a normal school fund to
be built up from the sale of swamp lands. This fund now amounts to
more than $3,200,000 and produces an income of about $120,000. This,
however, goes to the general fund and cannot be used by the Board of
Regents. Students fees are also sent to the general fund and the board
has no further claim upon them.
  The appraised value of the buildings and contents of the teachers
colleges is $8,844,974. The land owned by the Board of Regents
amounts to 389.32 acres of which 229.64 acres are in the farms at
Platteville and River Falls.
  During the first semester of the 1939-40 school year, 7,414 full-time
and 727 part-time students were enrolled and paid fees. In addition
there were 105 rehabilitation and 563 legislative scholarships, making
the total of full-and part-time college students 8,809. During the sec-
ond semester the enrollment dropped 8.4 percent.
  Total receipts from non-tax sources were $495,958.85, from federal
grants $28,467.36, and from tax sources $1,433,228.92. Total expendi-
tures were $1,957,655.13. This is about the average of receipts and ex-
penditures for the last decade.
