($27,411), clerical salary ($27,000), supplies and materials ($1,500), marketing ($1,600),
and equipment ($4,050). The proposal anticipates that the primary source of funding for the
program will be through student tuition.
Because the dance education track leads to initial teacher certification, the program
will have to be approved by the State Board of Education. In keeping with customary
procedure, staff has forwarded a copy of the proposal to State Department of Education
staff, and the University is in the process of developing additional materials demonstrating
how the curriculum supports the NASD and NCATE standards for submission to the
Department staff.
Shown below are the estimated Mission Resource Requirement (MRR) costs to the
state and new costs not funded by the MRR associated with implementation of the
proposed program for its first five years. Also shown are the estimated revenues projected
under the MRR and the Resource Allocation Plan as well as student tuition.

These data demonstrate that if USC-Columbia can meet the projected student
enrollments and contain costs as they are shown in the proposal, the program will not be
able to cover new costs with revenues it generates by the fifth year of its implementation.
In summary, USC-Columbia is proposing a program that will lead to a Bachelor’s
degree in Dance. The program will have two tracks: Performance/Choreography and
