SJSU Budget Forum

SJSU Budget Forum April 2
Faculty, staff, students and administrators, mark your calendars. An important forum for the San Jose State University community on the state budget crisis will be held from noon to 1 p.m. Wednesday, April 2, in the Student Union, Barrett Ballroom. Boxed lunches will be provided by the campus union groups. Please RSVP at 408-924-7787 by Wednesday, March 26.

The forum is a collaborative effort between President Don W. Kassing, campus labor groups, the Academic Senate and Associated Students. Members of the campus community are encouraged to attend to get the facts about the budget crisis and to learn how we can take action to let lawmakers know the importance of the California State University and the education we provide to students.

Speakers include President Kassing and representatives of faculty, staff, students, alumni and labor groups. The SJSU budget forum is one of a series of similar events being held on each CSU campus.

For more information, contact Nancy Stake, director of government and community relations within the Division of University Advancement, at 408-924-1167 or nancy.stake@sjsu.edu.
