And it wouldn't hire professors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, it would awards degrees based on mastery of skills and subjects, even if the student has never taken a class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The idea comes from Assemblyman Scott Wilk, R-Santa Clarita, who said he wants to make college more accessible to Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So he proposed a bill to the California State Assembly for a new type of higher education institution: Students would earn course credit by passing exams, and once a student had passed enough exams in his field, he would receive a degree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill, \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.ca.gov/pub/13-14/bill/asm/ab_1301-1350/ab_1306_bill_20130222_introduced.html\">AB 1306\u003c/a>, explains the proposed system:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The goal of the university is for its students to obtain the requisite knowledge and skills to pass the examinations administered by the university from any source, such as massive open online courses, the student deems appropriate. When the student feels that he or she is ready to take an examination, the student shall pay the examination fee, present acceptable identification at the examination, and, upon passage of the examination, receive academic credit. When a student receives sufficient academic credit in prescribed courses, the university shall issue an appropriate degree to that student.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\"This bill would allow students to use whatever approach works best for them to obtain the knowledge needed to receive a college education, whether that is online courses, paid courses, or self-directed study,\" said a statement from Wilk's office, quoted in the Daily Californian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The assemblyman introduced the bill in February, and on April 23, the Committee on Higher Education will hold hearings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California State University is studying the potential impact of the proposed system on the CSU, said CSU chancellor spokesman Michael Uhlenkamp, who declined to comment further.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For its part, the chancellor's office at the California Community Colleges has not paid close attention to the bill because it's still in the early stages, said Mike McGee, the interim vice chancellor for public affairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, he said, the chancellor's office has a lot of questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"\u003cstrong>\u003c/strong>Bills that creative don't always get all the questions answered right off the bat,\" he said, citing the accreditation process as one of their bigger concerns -- How do you accredit a university that doesn't have classes and faculty?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McGee also said there are discussions over how necessary such a system would be, given that California's community colleges already offer course credit by exam -- an option military personnel often take advantage of, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wilk's office did not return calls for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Daily Californian, UC Berkeley's student-run newspaper, \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailycal.org/2013/04/01/bill-proposes-fourth-state-university-system/\">interviewed student leaders\u003c/a>, who expressed mixed reactions:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Part of my feeling towards this bill is to be cautious about modifying our higher education system in ways that would substantially alter it,” said ASUC Senator and CalSERVE external affairs vice president candidate Nolan Pack. “I think the problem is that, while there may be arguments saying that it is cheaper, it circumvents the problem that we are not currently funding our higher education system to where it should be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UC Student Association Organizing and Communications Director Darius Kemp echoed Pack’s concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We always believe in a progressive conversation to improve higher education and are willing to sit down with any legislators looking to improve the accessibility and affordability of the UC system,” Kemp said. “While we encourage discussion towards any improvement to higher education, we also feel that it’s important that we fix the broken system we have now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The UC Office of the President has yet to review the bill and at this point has no comment, according to UC spokesperson Dianne Klein.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",

"description": "LOS ANGELES (AP) — California State University has reached a tentative agreement on a four-year contract with its faculty that largely preserves current contract terms and calls for no salary raises, the university and faculty union said Tuesday. "It's a fair agreement in the context of hard times," said Lillian Taiz, who heads the California Faculty Association, which represents 23,000 professors, lecturers, and other professional employees. "We are disappointed we were not able to get a raise, but that wasn't in the cards. It was a tough pill to swallow, I won't kid you." The university agreed to possibly reopen",

That means also increasing tuition. As a result I think the pressure on college presidents is such that it has changed the skill sets that we’re looking for.

Faculty have tenure. Staff have contracts. But if the board is dissatisfied with presidents’ service, the board can fire them. There is very little job security for presidents.

The president at San Francisco State had been at Northern Michigan. It’s a long winter there. Given the downturn in the economy and what’s happening in California, it’s much more difficult. So you begin looking within the California state system. Who there appears to be ready? It means we are grooming people to move into the presidency.
