The $11 million gap between WKU revenues and expenses from 2022-23 came primarily from overspending in the athletics and enrollment and student experience divisions, as well as from various one-time payments. Susan Howarth, WKU executive vice president for strategy, operations and finance, and Renaldo Domoney, WKU assistant vice president for budget, finance and analytics, said fiscal year 2023 saw expenditures of $400.6 million and revenues of $389.6 million. The budget was set for $383.4 million in both areas.
