The entire state of California is a financial mess, and college students and professors are being negatively affected as a result.
First, the unversities were forced to fire professors and omit classes to pay the bills (two of the graduate programs I was interested in at SFSU are gone!). Now, they’re greatly hiking tuition costs further burdening the already-in-debt-up-to-their-eyeballs students.
As a result, UC students from all over the state descended upon Los Angeles and UCLA to protest the additional $2,500 per semester full-timers will be charged starting next summer. Read all about it here, and check out this video of the demonstration:
As you can see, anger is in the air.
