WSU Board of Regents approves $1.4 million transfer to athletics to cover deficit - Kip Hill, Seattle Times

The university’s administration clarified to the 11-member board that transferred money would not come from tuition or state funds, but instead interest earnings that WSU had on hand. “People can say, I don’t like the decision,” WSU President Kirk Schulz told the board, who asked pointed questions of him, athletics director Pat Chun and members of the university’s Finance and Administration department at a meeting in Pullman on Friday morning. “But nobody’s going to say that this isn’t an appropriate use of the dollars.”
