DESCRIPTION:Most discussions of higher education finance focus on the level
 s of funding (i.e.\, how much will the state appropriate this year?). Whil
 e these discussions about levels of funding are undoubtedly important\, to
 o little attention is paid to the consequences of volatility in funding. P
 redictability matters – to institutions\, students\, families\, and states
 . In addition\, the risks of operating in an uncertain financial environme
 nt lead to behaviors that are not always in the best interests of states\,
  institutions\, or students. As such\, this research conference has been d
 eveloped to encourage new\, original scholarship on volatility in state su
