UHAD pays for the annual operation and maintenance costs of the SSC and the Les Murakami Stadium since these venues are used exclusively by the athletic department.  All expenses including coaches salaries, marketing and administrative expenses are borne by the athletic department and these costs are covered by revenue generated by the athletic department.  There should be no complaints about monies being diverted for athletics as they are charged with operating a balanced budget, and not dependent on the UH (academic) operational budget which is around $1.5 billion annually.
