"The new funding formula at the state level has created a lot of changes on all of the state campuses," Burke said. "One of the goals of the new position is to continue to maintain quality and really hit some of the benchmarks that the chancellor has set."
Burke has a bachelor's degree from the University of Houston, a master's degree in public policy and management, and a master's degree in natural resources from The Ohio State University.

I will be analyzing our current budget data finding out where we are and how we can best spend our money to get to the goals we have set to provide quality education for our students, and to make sure we continue to grow and develop as we have been in the last few years," Burke said.
