California Budget Crisis
In the midst of California’s continuing budget crisis, San Francisco State is relying upon a network of campus members including faculty, staff, administrators and students to do what we have done as a university community for many years—assemble facts and examine options to determine how best to uphold the university’s mission, in the face of shrinking revenues. This collaborative group, called the Education Budget Advocacy Committee (EBAC), provides advice and counsel to the University's budget advocacy efforts.
-
The California legislature (including all of the Bay Area members) and the Governor cut nearly $38 million of SF State's General Revenue funding -- reducing it from $166.7 million to $128.7 -- and imposed new unfunded mandatory costs of $9.5 million.
-
Class sections offered were reduced by 339 from our fall 2008 total of 3,164.
-
Spring 2010 Admissions have been closed.
As supporters of SF State we want to keep you up-to-date on the critical decisions that we are facing over the next several months as we aim to provide the highest level of quality and accessibility to our university. That's why we are asking for your help.
Please take a moment to contact your legislator and the governor. Tell them to make higher education a priority:
