Yesterday (Sunday 9/16) I read an article in the newspaper that told of a letter that Universities in California sent to students warning them that if the Governor's proposed tax measure does not pass in Nov, the tuitions will increase by 30% and as I noted earlier, they are already outrageously expensive. Only the uber rich will be able to afford a higher education, unlike when I was a youth. An after they get an expensive education, jobs are still scarce! It is discouraging. Ann

the 1% do not want us in the 99% to get an education - so they are doing everything they can to make ssure we won't afford education.......they want to keep us ignorant.......and sadly, they're succeeding.

Dear O/Mers.
Yesterday at our meeting Rex brought up an issue about COR losing accredation and failing here and in Eureka both. I was disturbed, so went online to fine out what's up, but there are schedules of classes, links to programs, and not a mention of any problems. However, I clicked on the link about collefe costs and was appaled to find that for a California resident living off-campus the fee is $14,971 per semester, and for non-residents the fee is $20,563!! How can anyone afford an education at that rate? Especially if Pell grants are gone, which is a threat. What can we do?? Our kids deserve education but most have to leave town to get school they can afford, and most parents cannot help the kids, they are broke.
