CSU System to enroll 10,000 Less Students

Submitted by www.theBulldogS... on Wed 23 Mar at 12:10 PM

California spends about $47,000 per inmate in state prisons, while spending less than $8,000 per California State University student. Yet, the CSU is slated for a $500 million cut next year — an approximately $20 million cut for Fresno State. In the meantime, prison spending is proposed to remain essentially flat.

~ Charles B. Reed, CSU Chancellor

Caption: 
If CSU loses $1 billion, the state Legislative Analyst's Office recommends that CSU reduce enrollment by 5 percent, raise tuition by 10 percent and cut staff compensation by 5 percent. Any tuition hike would come on top of a 10 percent increase already approved for the fall 2010 term.~ Terence Chea
