more subsidies to athletics

7/21/2010: I’m compiling a list of state/academic subsidies to athletics. So far I’ve got the

  • $1.4 million: State lottery money used for athletic scholarships.
  • ?: Legal Services to athletic department (UO and DOJ billed to UO)
  • ? portion of 1039 hours salary for Lorraine Davis to cover costs proctoring quizzes
  • ? Athletic Director Salary and bonuses. (Part of Pres office, or Athletic budget?)
  • ~$600,000: Parking subsidy
  • Land for Jock Box
  • UO President and staff time
  • Title IX compliance assistance from AAEO
  • ?: Bonds for arena land

Any other suggestions? Does anyone know for sure if the $27.4 million state bonds for buying the land for the arena from Williams Bakery are being repaid by the athletic department, or by academics?
