Money, targets and budgets overshadow life and work in colleges. The systems for funding colleges are notoriously complicated and too few people understand how they work. Too few know how and where colleges spend their money. This book demystifies college finance and provides insights that will be valuable for governors, managers, lecturers and anyone who works in the sector.
