I hope a reduction also applies to out-of-state tuition...

I have mixed feelings about prop 92:

Quote:

Proposition 92 could reduce the funds available to other programs. Required increases in community college funding under Proposition 92 would occur despite the fact that the Legislative Analyst also projects that the state will face operating shortfalls of $8 billion in 2008-09 and 2009-10.9 In tight fi scal years – including the foreseeable future – Proposition 92 would require the state to cut spending on programs other than K-14 education or raise revenues to provide additional funding for community colleges. This could reduce the funds available for programs such as health care, housing, and human services as well as the remainder of higher education, including student aid, the California State University, and the University of California.

Prop 92 could potentially hurt other programs.
What is the point of saving money in community college when you are going to end up paying more once you transfer over to a university?

$15 a unit?! Here it's $64 for in-district in-state.
