Here?s the final follow-up for now on the prior post, looking at the UNC budget. It?s safe to say, as I indicated in my past two Daily Journals, that UNC was a huge winner in the budget deal:

08-09 Authorized Budget (long-since-outdated)
$2,895,211,623

08-09 Actual Budget Spent (estimated about two months ago)
$2,685,211,623

09-10 Authorized Budget (including federal bailout)
$2,844,650,279

Difference
Up $159,438,656, or nearly 6 percent
