An article on Inside Higher Ed about colleges and universities increasing athletic funding at a time when many are freezing salaries and even furloughing employees reports that UB -- as well as fellow MAC schools Eastern Michigan, Kent State, Miami (Ohio), Ohio, Akron and Western Michigan -- derived at least a third of their operating revenues from student fees, institutional support or other allocated sources, rather than generated sources such as ticket sales, fundraising dollars, television and other deals.
