Yup, government appropriations is about 38% of tuition. Part of tuition is also paid for by the government via various programs.
So if you want to look at total cost starting from the average amount a student pays as tuition you have to increase it by 38%. There are of course other intangibles paid for by the government such as the initial investment, often the land and a part of the endowment too.
So it is consequence fair to say that that tuition in state university is subsidized by the government.
