Contingency -- The Colorado Commission on Higher Education may transfer spending authority from this line item to the Governing Boards if tuition revenue 5
increases beyond appropriated levels. The spending authority for this line item is in addition to the funds appropriated direct ly to the Governing Boards. It 6
is the General Assembly's intent that the Colorado Commission on Higher Education transfer spending authority from this line it em to allow institutions to 7
receive and expend tuition revenue beyond appropriated levels that results from higher than expected enrollment and not to supp ort tuition increases that exceed 8
