Budget Alternatives for UC
Financing the University – Part 17

BUDGET ALTERNATIVES for UC
This is no time for the same old approach to the University’s budget since it is most unlikely that the state of California will be able to provide what is being asked. Here we open some closet doors in UC’s big house and show how three alternatives, with several side options, can provide all of the required funding – without raising student fees, limiting enrollment, or harming academic quality. This approach is based on fiscal honesty and shared sacrifice to get us through these hard times.
