annual appropriation recommendations. These recommendations outline operating, capital outlay, capital maintenance programs and campus master plans and affect funding for the University of Tennessee and Tennessee Board of Regents Systems. Additionally, the Fiscal Affairs division maintains a system of financial accounting and reporting for the state's public higher education institutions. Along with making tuition and fee recommendations to the two systems, Fiscal Affairs conducts reviews and analysis of financial issues, supervises the review and presentation of higher education operating budgets and staffs the THEC Committee on Fiscal Affairs. Fiscal Affairs coordinates and prepares appropriation recommendations for the Tennessee Student Assistance Corporation, and operating funds for the Tennessee Foreign Language Institute, and the Commission. The division also manages allotments and prepares recommendations for the Geier Desegregation Settlement, Tuition Discount and Fee Waiver, Contract Education, and Harold Love Community Service Awards programs.
