CSU's Critical Crisis

Nanette Asimov of the San Francisco Chronicle discuss the new problem CSU's have to facing and are facing at this moment. Currently they have to turn down as much as 10,000 students from the school, many faculty members and teachers, and foresee more trouble to come. This devastating financial issue at this time is termed as:

"...the worst financial situation the CSU has ever had," said Trustee Bill Hauck, chairman of the university system's finance committee.

CSU's are important campuses that bond many students that hope to go into an university in the future, but could not get in. This bridge is now being threatened by this problem and it still remains to be seen for students who don't want to apply to a community college. In California, there are currently 23 campuses that are concerned with this particular problem. In the upcoming year, it is very vital in how we, the community, should deal with it by voting or reforming tax policies and budget cuts. If Jerry Brown does not properly allocate more support into the CSU's, we will be looking at a surge of many students who will either jam pack the community colleges in California, or worse case scenario, drop out of schooling entirely.
