California Prison Educator Numbers May Be Cut 65%:

"Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, while speaking at a press conference today, responded to a question about cuts to the number of prison educators.

Question: There was a rally this morning about hundreds that say that they're going to get laid off next month from the department, training, vocational teachers that rehabilitate prisoners and they're going to be laid off next month, 900 out of 1,400.

Death of the Master Plan? | California Progress Report

Death of the Master Plan? | California Progress Report:

"A newly created legislative committee on California’s Master Plan for Higher Education listened Monday to a long list of college presidents, students, professors and others tell different versions of the same sad story: The fifty-year-old promise of the Master Plan has been broken.

But if the members, all presumably earnest men and women, had wanted a quick analysis, they would have been better off looking in the mirror. It was the state – governors and legislators and the voters they represent – that betrayed the promise.� .

The Master Plan, engineered by University of California President Clark Kerr in 1960, was a formal division of turf among the three segments of California’s higher education system."
