Newspaper Page TextPage Two. THE REGISTER-OUARD. EUGENE. OREGON State Education Operating Costs Below Average If the Oregon Stat system if higher education had been an "av crige" educational unit in the blennium 1939-1940, it would have pent approximately $120,000 more for administration and $75, 000 more for physical plant oper ation. But since the system "beat" the national average expenditure percentage in each of these class ifications, distinctive savings were made, Willard L. Marks, president of the state board of higher educa tion, announced today. A comparison of the Oregon percentages with the figures of the U. S. commissioner of education reveals that the local system spent only 8 8 per cent of its total in come for administrative and serv ice departments. If it had spent the national average of 10.3 per cent, Mr. Marks pointed out, the cost for these departments would have been nearly $80,000 greater for each year of the biennium. Expenditures for physical plant also gave Oregon schools a better than average record. The national figure was 12.3 per cent; the state system, 11 5 per rent. "The effectiveness of an edu cational institution, like that of a business, is determined by how much of its expenditures go into production rather than into over head," Mr. Marks continued. "Since educational 'production' is instructing students, ti is gratify ing to find that the six schools of the state sysem post a better rec ord than the 'average' American institution, with 79 8 per cent go ing for instruction and libraries, in comparison with a nation-wide percentage of 77.4 per cent." The board president calculated that the system, through savings in administrative cost tabulated above, was able to spend nearly $100,000 more each year for in struction and libraries than if it had been "average."
