But A&M re tained only $604,953 after sending about $1.5 million to the Southwest Conference according to its distribu tion formula. But the money the University gives to the Athletic Department is not state money, Groff says. “It’s a legistlative mandate that tax dollars cannot be spent on intercolle giate athletics,” he says.

The Southwest Conference thus receives money from bowl games and television contracts. Groff says the conference pays its expenses, then divides the remainder among the nine conference schools. A&M received about $650,000 from the conference surplus in 1986, Groff says. And the 1987 sur plus could be even less because only one team went to a major bowl, he says. ment $750,000 to supplement the women’s athletic program.

Scholar (Continued from page 1) A&M has lost much of its revenue to the Southwest Conference, Groff says. “If we were independent, we would be about $4.5 million richer because we’d keep everything we earned instead of giving a large por tion to the conference,” he says. “Of course, we’ve been successful the past three years. There have been prior years when we would have been hurting if we hadn’t had that money from the conference.” The large schools usually bear the financial burden in the conference, he says. “Some schools never put in what they get out,” he says. “Large schools Each of the 10 teams have a schol arship limit ranging from 5 schol arships for men’s tennis to 16 schol arships for women’s track. Men’s teams have a total of 158 scholarships allotted to them. The women’s program has 82 schol arships available. Lynn Hickey, associate director for women’s athletics, says most teams don’t use all of their schol arship allotment every year. “Graduation rates vary, and in or der to recruit the next year, schol arships must be available,” she says. “If all of the allotment were used, and no one from the team grad uated, no scholarships are available the next year to attract recruits.” Groff says the unused revenue is saved for the next year’s budget. ‘‘We can carry over whatwela and don’t spend," he says. “Since; earn everything we use, we b surplus so if we have a bad yen football we will have something fall back on.” is.
