Is It Time For CSU Long Beach To Offer More Online Learning? - Noel Hacegaba, Long Beach Post
Still feeling the effects of deep cuts sustained to balance this year’s State budget, Long Beach State recently got some good news and then some bad news within a span of 24 hours. On November 18, the CSU Board of Trustees approved a plan that requests $884 million from the State to restore funding levels to its 2010/2011 budget. But just one day later, the State’s Legislative Analyst projected a $21.3 billion State deficit for next year’s budget. Unless the economy recovers in historic fashion and the State’s revenue sources begin to outpace outlays by leaps and bounds, it is highly improbable that the State will be in a fiscal position to meet the CSU System’s request. It looks like California is in for another bruising budget battle.
