AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM UC SAN DIEGO CHANCELLOR MARYE ANNE FOX AND UC PRESIDENT MARK G. YUDOF...
We need you, as a UC San Diego advocate, to take part in a letter-writing campaign on behalf of UC and public higher education in the remaining few weeks before the Legislature's fall recess. Click here to take action today!
As you know, the state budget process for 2009-10 ended recently with a budget that leaves UC and the campuses with 20 percent less state funding than at the beginning of last year. Faculty and staff pay reductions, student fee increases, and program cuts at campuses and the Office of the President are being implemented to cope with this immediate budget crunch. But this short-term response is not sustainable.
Meanwhile, the University of California is a vital engine of opportunity, possibility, and leadership for California. For 140 years, the university has worked to develop the human capital of California, energize its economy, and advance its health and wellbeing. UC education and innovation have helped power California's rise to its position of global economic and cultural leadership. That can't continue - we need the state's support.
