Anyway, go back and read that article you posted. We can easily make up budget shortfalls by raising student fees and cutting admissions.
Um, kewp, again not trying to pick up a fight here. But when an organization, your organization that employees you, declares they have at least a $417million shortfall, don't you think somehow you're going to be affected? Do you really think all this shortfall can be passed onto students as tuition hikes? Again, revisit the last shortfalls that occured at the UC systems. If you still think your not connected to the relative health of the state/fed government, I'm glad you can see through the optimism.
