LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a $47.1 billion package of bills at Cal State Northridge Wednesday intended to smooth the way for more California students to go to college.

The bills that were made law Wednesday would make it easier and more affordable for California’s high school students to attend University of California and Cal State University colleges. They also help fund affordable housing for students, particularly those attending community college, and add more funding to financial aid programs....

...Nearly three dozen bills were signed into law at the Cal State Northridge event, all with the intention of improving access to higher education for California students. A number had to do with standardizing general education requirements and community college courses....

This is money laundering and using state treasury to fund the Left.

Colleges have plenty of money and could give free access. The land and buildings are long paid for.

This jerk could fix a lot roads, bridges, build reservoirs and nuke plants with that kind of money. Furthermore, most kids in CA go to college to get drunk, stoned and compare tats and piercings.

They don’t give a damn about anything other than the leftist indoctrination of young people. Once that is understood, you “get” the rats big push for college skool promotion and funding.

If students learned traditional American values at colleges, Newsome would be TAKING AWAY 47 billion from schools to try to bankrupt them.

Not sure I understand the fascination with “everybody go to college”. We also need trade workers. Ever listen to Mike Rowe? Great ideas. College does not guarantee you a good paying job for life.

Higher education institutions have long been the largest money laundering scheme to fund Democratic party election boxes.

At one of my son's graduations, the graduates were introduced by major and asked to stand.

When they announced "Department of Women's Studies" someone with a bullhorn countersignaled "Department of Social Carcinoma".

The college racket will soon collapse of its own weight.

Governor Newsom signed a bill to keep the Cal State system afloat.

As people flee the state, the illegal aliens and homeless people left behind certainly aren't using the university system for anything other than a place to camp and defecate.

Well, at least the restaurants will be fully staffed again. Still not worth $47 billion of taxpayer money.
