Well, CE, not sure what you are implying here but FWIW, I was not a resident of CA at the time. I don’t know what UC tuition/fees were in that era but IIRC, SDSU (recently renamed from SD State College) was about $114-143 semester + fees (about $168 semester incl pkg). CA CC’s were “free.”

I went to SDSU in the mid early/mid 80’s. It was SDSU even back then. And had been for a while.
At the time I started registration and fees for in-state students was approx. $350/semester. Books were another $100. By the time I left it had gone up to $550/semester, and books had doubled.
It’s up to $3289 for registration and fees for in-state students, per semester. And the sdsu.edu website claims it’s about $800/semester for books. That seems pretty steep to me.
