Sonoma and San Diego Budget Rallies

Sonoma and San Diego had their campus budget rallies yesterday.

Over 900 people turned out at San Diego. The San Diego Union-Tribune quoted the local CFA president:

"Morale is crumbling. Many people are incredibly nervous, especially those that don't know if they'll have a job to come back to in the fall," Kennedy said.

Kennedy was unsure what should be cut in place of higher education, but she said reducing funding to CSU will cost the economy more in the long run.
