university realized unrestricted income of more than 4.3 million m excess of the budgeted amount according to the university's financial report for 1980 tl the report prepared by university vice-president and treasurer john woltjen called the 1980-81 fiscal year one of the better years for lehigh university woltjen said that while the university has operated m the black for a number of years last year was particularly significant because of a 17.7 million increase m the university's endowment fund this increase m the endowment fund was due largely lo the sale of a large block of securities inordertomake cash available to three external equity managers who for the first time handled part of the university's endowment funds the unbudgeted 4.3 million of income was due m part to higher interest earned on the endowment fund and short term investments but the largest single source of unbudgeted income was from student payments wolt jen said the 1980-81 budget figure m this area was surpassed by approximately 1.1 million this was largely due to unexpected tuition revenue from what is the equivalent of 213 full time students attending the university 710,000 of the unbudgeted income was directed to the university's endowment stabilization fund and 1,080,000 was placed into the future appropriations fund transfers to financial aid support were also increased over the
