The standards were approved for implementation by individual states, though the U.S. Department of Education encouraged their adoption through initiatives like Race to the Top.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new tests have angered some parents and teachers across the nation, who say the exams distract from real learning, put added stress on students and staff members, and waste resources, especially in poor districts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, by contrast, the Common Core standards have been largely embraced by district leaders, parents and teacher unions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"RCkqA06d80cS9DcW8cvuvDFyvBzPHu8m\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kirst said even if the new test results aren't used on the state index, they will still be reported at the school, district and state level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They'll be held accountable to the public,\" Kirst said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several districts, including Los Angeles Unified, the nation's second-largest, requested that this year's assessments not be used for accountability purposes, arguing that students have not had enough time to practice on testing devices and that the new tests could not be reliably compared with the old pencil-and-paper standardized tests that California children took to measure growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We need that next year to look at this issue of growth,\" said Edgar Zarzueta, LAUSD chief of external affairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Smarter Balanced tests are required to be taken on a computer or tablet. At LAUSD, there were numerous problems when a practice test was administered, including the website crashing and slow connectivity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those issues appear to be resolved: The tests are now being administered in 94 Los Angeles schools, and officials said Tuesday there were no major issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tests evaluate students in grades three through eight and 11th grade in Common Core-aligned English-language arts and math.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Delay Gives State More Time to Build New Grading System\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Suspending the state's evaluation system means scores in the first year won't be used to take any corrective actions.

The standards were approved for implementation by individual states, though the U.S. Department of Education encouraged their adoption through initiatives like Race to the Top.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new tests have angered some parents and teachers across the nation, who say the exams distract from real learning, put added stress on students and staff members, and waste resources, especially in poor districts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, by contrast, the Common Core standards have been largely embraced by district leaders, parents and teacher unions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kirst said even if the new test results aren't used on the state index, they will still be reported at the school, district and state level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They'll be held accountable to the public,\" Kirst said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several districts, including Los Angeles Unified, the nation's second-largest, requested that this year's assessments not be used for accountability purposes, arguing that students have not had enough time to practice on testing devices and that the new tests could not be reliably compared with the old pencil-and-paper standardized tests that California children took to measure growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We need that next year to look at this issue of growth,\" said Edgar Zarzueta, LAUSD chief of external affairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Smarter Balanced tests are required to be taken on a computer or tablet. At LAUSD, there were numerous problems when a practice test was administered, including the website crashing and slow connectivity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those issues appear to be resolved: The tests are now being administered in 94 Los Angeles schools, and officials said Tuesday there were no major issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tests evaluate students in grades three through eight and 11th grade in Common Core-aligned English-language arts and math.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Delay Gives State More Time to Build New Grading System\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Suspending the state's evaluation system means scores in the first year won't be used to take any corrective actions. Numerous parent, teacher and education organizations commented in favor of the delay at Wednesday's meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We feel that accountability is very important to the public, but it's sensible to delay because the information is not all going to be clear and solid and current, and we need the transition time,\" said Celia Jaffe, education commissioner of the California State PTA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision to suspend California's school accountability system is also part of a larger effort to develop a new framework using multiple measures to evaluate school performance, rather than a single number tied to a test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board voted in favor of moving forward on a Department of Education recommendation to develop a new framework that would replace the one suspended this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it reflects the inherent need to take a pause ... as we look at the best way to evaluate a school,\" board member Kenton Shimozaki said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Late last week, \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-uc-santa-cruz-closed-students-protest-tuition-20150305-story.html\" target=\"_blank\">students protesting tuition increases\u003c/a> approved in November shut down entrances to the Santa Cruz campus. And the ongoing standoff between Gov. Jerry Brown and UC President Janet Napolitano over those hikes took another turn recently when Napolitano threatened to \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/education/la-me-ln-uc-enrollment-20150303-story.html\" target=\"_blank\">freeze enrollment\u003c/a> of California residents at all campuses and of out-of-state residents at Berkeley and Los Angeles. The freeze is especially significant given that UC has experienced an increase in applications \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailycal.org/2015/01/12/uc-berkeley-sees-6-percent-jump-applications-undergraduate-admissions/\" target=\"_blank\">11 years in a row\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the protests and politicking, UC Berkeley Chancellor Nicholas Dirks addressed tuition and admission policies during his appearance on KQED's \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/forum/R201503090900\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cem>Forum\u003c/em>\u003c/a>. Here are some highlights:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On UC Berkeley's Increase in Out-of-State Students:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px\">\"At Berkeley itself, we have had over the last 10 years just about the same number of California students. We haven't reduced that number at all, even as we have been increasing out-of-state students. So we have roughly 21,000 in-state students from California. And that number has remained, plus or minus very small percentages, the same. We have increased our out-of-state enrollment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px\">\"And of course one thing that out-of-state enrollment shows us is that there are a lot of students across the country, and indeed across the world, who would pay 2½ times as much in tuition without the same kind of advantages of financial aid to attend the University of California at Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px\">\"The University of Michigan has 40 percent out-of-state [students], University of Virginia has 40 percent out-of-state [students]. Great universities that have been in states where similar levels of disinvestment have taken place have taken that route. We've tried not to.

"content": "\u003cp>Nonresident enrollment will be capped at UC Berkeley and UCLA in the fall to address concerns that California students are being displaced. But the university system also does not plan to admit more residents to any of its campuses unless it gets more state funding, university President Janet Napolitano says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano told lawmakers on Tuesday during a budget hearing in Sacramento that UC's two flagship campuses will not be allowed to increase the percentage of out-of-state and international undergraduates they enroll during the next academic year. Nonresidents made up 20 percent of the undergraduates at UCLA last fall and 23 percent at Berkeley during the last academic year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The two schools where the number of out-of-state students really rubs people raw are Berkeley and UCLA because they are in the highest demand,\" she said. \"For the '15-16 school year, we will maintain the current level of out-of-state enrollment with no such guarantee for the other campuses of the University of California.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The university has been admitting more students from outside California to generate revenue because those students pay much higher tuition — $35,070 compared with the $12,192 charged to residents. Systemwide, their numbers have more than doubled in four years. Along with UCLA and Berkeley, nonresident enrollment also has increased rapidly at UC San Diego, where students from outside California accounted for one in five undergraduates in the fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trend has emerged as a sticking point in negotiations over the university's budget. In November, Napolitano proposed raising tuition by 5 percent this fall and expanding undergraduate enrollment by 3,000 — one-third of the slots for Californians and two-thirds for students from abroad and out of state. Gov. Jerry Brown, however, has threatened to withhold about $120 million in state funds unless the university keeps both its tuition rates and nonresident enrollment flat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the March window for notifying prospective freshmen if they have been admitted now open and the funding issue unresolved, Napolitano said the university now plans not to add any new seats for Californians next year. The nine UC campuses that serve undergraduates had 161,230 in-state students enrolled last year, the most recent period for which statistics were available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In the past, we have admitted more California residents than we were funded for,\" she said. \"We are not in a position to do that in the future.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins, who has proposed increasing nonresident tuition by $5,000 next year as a way of augmenting the university's budget so more in-state students could be accommodated, said she was frustrated by Napolitano's remarks, noting that the university still was planning to serve more out-of-state students, albeit not at UCLA or Berkeley. .\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Proposing a cap on out-of-state students at two UC campuses, while increasing out-of-state enrollment overall, does not solve the problem,\" Atkins said. \"UC's job is to educate California students, not wait-list them.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

But the university system also does not plan to admit more residents to any of its campuses unless it gets more state funding, university President Janet Napolitano says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano told lawmakers on Tuesday during a budget hearing in Sacramento that UC's two flagship campuses will not be allowed to increase the percentage of out-of-state and international undergraduates they enroll during the next academic year. Nonresidents made up 20 percent of the undergraduates at UCLA last fall and 23 percent at Berkeley during the last academic year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The two schools where the number of out-of-state students really rubs people raw are Berkeley and UCLA because they are in the highest demand,\" she said. \"For the '15-16 school year, we will maintain the current level of out-of-state enrollment with no such guarantee for the other campuses of the University of California.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The university has been admitting more students from outside California to generate revenue because those students pay much higher tuition — $35,070 compared with the $12,192 charged to residents. Systemwide, their numbers have more than doubled in four years. Along with UCLA and Berkeley, nonresident enrollment also has increased rapidly at UC San Diego, where students from outside California accounted for one in five undergraduates in the fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trend has emerged as a sticking point in negotiations over the university's budget. In November, Napolitano proposed raising tuition by 5 percent this fall and expanding undergraduate enrollment by 3,000 — one-third of the slots for Californians and two-thirds for students from abroad and out of state. Gov. Jerry Brown, however, has threatened to withhold about $120 million in state funds unless the university keeps both its tuition rates and nonresident enrollment flat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The nine UC campuses that serve undergraduates had 161,230 in-state students enrolled last year, the most recent period for which statistics were available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In the past, we have admitted more California residents than we were funded for,\" she said. \"We are not in a position to do that in the future.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins, who has proposed increasing nonresident tuition by $5,000 next year as a way of augmenting the university's budget so more in-state students could be accommodated, said she was frustrated by Napolitano's remarks, noting that the university still was planning to serve more out-of-state students, albeit not at UCLA or Berkeley. .\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Proposing a cap on out-of-state students at two UC campuses, while increasing out-of-state enrollment overall, does not solve the problem,\" Atkins said. \"UC's job is to educate California students, not wait-list them.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Napolitano said non-campus police are better equipped in forensics, evidence-gathering and when it comes to penalties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because, after all, basically the maximum penalty we have is to be expelled,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano said UC has taken some steps, such as appointing an independent advocate on every campus, creating a website that tells survivors where to start and looking to do more widespread training.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano said another goal is: “Making sure that when a survivor comes forward, that a survivor knows what her rights are, and when all is said and done, gets information back about what ultimately happened with her investigation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Hill agreed that process is very important, in the end she said it still comes down to a shift in attitudes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s more than just the laws being on the books, it’s more than the processes being in place,” she said. “We have to have a society that accepts that these rights count.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How we’re going to actually help people to understand that a civil rights violation is an infraction that is something that has consequences and that should be punished and something that not only affects the two people involved but affects entire communities, and affects everybody’s ability to feel safe in a community?” Hill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re a long way from it.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

But here are the big questions the University of California is being asked, and some of them are doozies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. Why Has UC Spending Gone Up So Much?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Legislative staff \u003ca href=\"http://abgt.assembly.ca.gov/sites/abgt.assembly.ca.gov/files/UC%20Feb%2018%20agenda.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">has been digging through the university system's spending documents for weeks\u003c/a>, and still doesn't have a totally clear picture of the reason the total UC budget is now $26.9 billion. That's a 40 percent increase from the last pre-recession year of 2007-08 until 2014-15.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, consider some other government services at that same seven-year mark: court funding has been cut by 3 percent; the state's social services have been cut by 22 percent; even the California State University system's increased spending was smaller, at 24 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Costs clearly vary by which of the 10 UC campuses is being examined. UCLA, for example, has a budget about 10 times the size of UC Santa Cruz. Even so, legislative budget experts have highlighted particularly big systemwide expenses, from a 99 percent increase in spending on health sciences instruction (medical and other specialty schools) to a 68 percent increase in spending on the five UC-run hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One huge cost these days: paying for UC employee pensions. The university, with the blessing of state officials, stopped putting money into its pension system for almost 20 years. Now, those pension obligations are costing about $1.3 billion a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's a lot more to sort out. Of the $26.9 billion budget for the university system, only $6.9 billion has been identified as being spent on \"core\" operations, like teaching. Getting details on that other $20 billion in costs will no doubt be high on the to-do list at the state Capitol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Are out-of-state students crowding out California kids?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is perhaps one of the most intense public debates out there, and it's rooted in money. During the state's recession years, when lawmakers cut general taxpayer support for the UC system, the schools boosted their non-Californian population and the amount it pays in tuition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the seven years examined by legislative researchers, UC's in-state student body grew by 4 percent; its out-of-state student body grew by … take a breath here ... \u003cem>a whopping 253 percent\u003c/em>. Each one of those non-resident students now pays $22,878 more than an in-state student.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University leaders have insisted that it hasn't meant fewer slots for Californians, but legislators have sounded skeptical in early Sacramento hearings on UC's funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. What should be considered a \"competitive salary\" for a UC employee?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a six-year timespan ending in 2013, the University of California doubled the number of employees who earn $200,000 or more. Now, before you go grab a pitchfork and storm Sather Gate, it's important to note that some of these positions aren't paid out of state taxpayer funds, and UC officials have told the Legislature that much of the growth in this high-paid tier of workers is in the UC health and hospital faculty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the publicly available data isn't clear about who's paid from which pots of money. And even then, legislators are asking tough questions about how UC officials consider what a fair salary should be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example: Should UC base its salary offers on what both public and private universities pay? And in the case of some managers, UC bases salary on positions with both education and non-education employers -- including Fortune 500 companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the legislative staff report puts it:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Competing with private universities and large corporations, while maintaining a public mission to sustain access to higher education for low-income students and remaining affordable to all students, is a significant challenge.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. Are students paying for teaching ... or research?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The University of California's campuses pride themselves on a faculty \u003ca href=\"http://www.ucla.edu/about/mission-and-values\" target=\"_blank\">committed to education, research and public service\u003c/a>. But as cost pressures have risen and fewer classes have sometimes been offered, a debate has arisen about \u003ca href=\"http://socrates.berkeley.edu/~schwrtz/Part_22.html\" target=\"_blank\">whether the state can afford for UC faculty to spend as much time on research\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some say it's a unfair cost being borne on the backs of undergraduates and their families. And while UC officials have told legislators that research cost about $4 billion in 2013-14 from all funding sources, the Assembly budget subcommittee's staff report says tracking that spending is not easy ... and that UC officials are still compiling information about who's actually teaching undergraduate classes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. Why shouldn't state lawmakers impose more rules on UC's use of taxpayer dollars?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This final question is one that the Assembly's budget staffers say is as fairly posed to Brown's administration and the Legislature as it is to anyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wouldn't be unusual, in a historical sense, for lawmakers to earmark more of the money they send to the UC system. But when the recession hit, and UC's share of the state budget shrank, the number of specific spending directives also shrank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legislative budget report says that the Brown administration has resisted efforts in recent years to lay out more marching orders for how the university spends the money from the state's general fund. But as the tension mounts in this \"more money or more tuition hikes\" showdown, it seems reasonable to ask whether more money should also come with more oversight -- even for a system of higher education \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/12/05/should-UC-independent-status-be-revoked/\" target=\"_blank\">that remains one of the most independent in the United States\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n",
