Position Papers
Stopping the Governor's Budget Cuts to The Community Colleges
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has decided to balance the state budget on the backs of the poor. The poor go to community colleges.
Environmentally Sustainable Campus Buildings & Addressing Nurse Shortages
I have been an environmentalist since the age of 10. As a life-long environmentalist, I will ensure the 48 proposed new buildings as a result of funding from Propositions A and AA are environmentally sustainable.

The Community Colleges Can Provide Needed Quality Nurses.

Reducing the Cost of Textbooks
For a full load, a student can expect to spend $700 - $800 in textbooks. Why are textbooks so costly and what can we do about it?
