We were up about $50,000 in work study. Overall, then, we were down about ten percent. The alternative for most of the students who chose to return came in the form of loans—loans from banks, parents, grandparents. Some students had to borrow more than we would have liked to see, said Ingle. But they had to meet the cost of an education. The cuts hurt the middle income students the most. First priority was given to students with the greatest need. Anyone with under $2,000 need, we had to deny. Financial aid, however, was not the only problem. Various colleges within the University faced overcrowded classes and increased student-faculty ratios due to a freeze in hiring that resulted from the cuts. The student- faculty ratio in the college of Business Economics, for example, climbed to 28 to 1. Students were scared about the future of their University.

In its original form, the mission model would have distributed state appropriations in 1982-84 to seven of the eight state universities (Kentucky State University was excluded), according to the missions developed for them by the council in 1977. The vast majority of the appropriation increases would have gone to UK, Louisville, and Northern Kentucky University. The plan was, however, revised when Brown said there would not be adequate funding for it. The compromise reached gave at least a six percent guaranteed increase in 1982-84 state appropriations to the seven universities. In the original plan, deemed the Bluegrass Plan, UK was to have received $20.7 million of the $39 million in new state funding in the plan's first year.
