All of our candidates - not just those according to [A.S.] party lines - submitted their qualifications during last year's elections. Students entrusted us to make these decisions. It's critical because it's a matter of students paying more [for higher education] in the future. |
I know the current UCOP policy is very restrictive for student associations [wanting] to organize for their rights. Right now student associations are not allowed to use compulsory funds to any campaign that supports or opposes state propositions. |
I know there were previous propositions passed by voters that made it so California had to reduce its spending on education during periods of recession. But [the state] also had to increase educational spending as required during years where there is a surplus [in the state budget] to make up for what they have been missing during the years of recession. Prop 76 limits that. |
