The Story

Recent state legislation expands California's public higher education system by authorizing bachelor's degree programs at specific community colleges, officially recognizing tribal colleges within the state system, and modifying student employment and transfer requirements. These measures alter institutional offerings and administrative policies across the state's higher education segments.
