3.28 	inflation is not possible, available funding shall first be applied to the agreed upon budget 
3.29 	priorities.

3.30 	Sec. 4. [135A.043] RESIDENT TUITION.

4.17 	campuses are expected to achieve the objectives in subdivision 1 and will be held 
4.18 	accountable for doing so. The legislature is increasing the flexibility of the systems and 
4.19 	campuses to provide greater responsibility to higher education in deciding how to achieve 
4.20 	statewide objectives, and to decentralize authority so that those decisions can be made 
4.21 	at the level where the education is delivered. To demonstrate their accountability, the 
4.22 	legislature expects each system and campus to measure and report on its performance, 
4.23 	using meaningful indicators that are critical to achieving the objectives in subdivision 1, 
4.24 	as provided in section 135A.033. Nothing in this section precludes a system or campus
