A. B. SEVEN FIVE SIX. MR ZURICH
MISTERS ERIN WHEN YOU'RE READY
PLEASE BEGIN WITH YOUR OPENING
STATE. THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR.
AND THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THIS BILL
HEARD COLLEAGUES AB SEVEN FIFTY
SIX IS A LABOR OF LOVE- THIS
THIS THIS- THE CAL KIDS
INVESTMENT THIS BILL IS THE CAL
KIDS INVESTMENT ACT AND WOULD
LEVY A 1% FEE ON A FINANCIAL
INSTITUTION THAT DOES BUSINESS.
IN CALIFORNIA ON EACH LOAN
ORIGINATED BY A PRIVATE PERSON.
FOR THE PURPOSES OF FINANCING
EDUCATION IN CALIFORNIA. THE
FEE IS NON RECURRING SO IT DOES
NOT APPLY ON THE LOAN ANNUALLY
OR ON REPAYMENT. THE FEE IS
SOLELY INTENDED TO BE PAID BY
THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTION. AND
WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH BOTH
LEDGE COUNCIL AND BANKING
COMMITTEE TO ENSURE OUR
AMENDMENTS CLEARLY STATE THIS
PROVISION. SO THAT THE COST IS
NOT BORNE UPON- THE CURRENT
HOLDERS OF THE DEBT AS THEY'RE
TRYING TO FINANCE THEIR
EDUCATION I WANTED TO THANK
THIS COMMITTEE- BECAUSE- AS THE
CHAIR KNOWS I'VE BEEN WORKING
ON THIS ISSUE AREA NOW FOR
SEVERAL YEARS. WHETHER IT WAS A
B. FIFTEEN OR A. B. THIRTY
FOUR. THE IDEA AND THE CONCEPT
IS TO HAVE A SYSTEM IN PLACE IN
CALIFORNIA WHERE EVERY CHILD
BORN. WILL HAVE A FIVE TWENTY
NINE ACCOUNT TO THEIR NAME.
PLACED SO THAT BY THE TIME
THEY'RE EIGHTEEN. THE FIVE
TWENTY NINE ACCOUNT WILL GROW
TO A PLACE WHERE WOULD FINANCE
THEIR EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES
AND ENHANCE THEIR CAREER PATHS.
GIVEN WHAT WE'RE SEEING WITH
THE COST OF EDUCATION COST OF
COLLEGE TUITION- COST OF BEING
ANY YOUNGER ADULTS BEING ABLE
TO ADVANCE AND ENHANCE THEIR
FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES IT'S
BECOMING ALL THE MORE DIFFICULT
AND CHALLENGING. FOR OUR
CHILDREN TO BE ABLE TO MAKE THE
NECESSARY INVESTMENTS WHEN YOU
LOOK AND SEE THAT- EDUCATION
THAT INDUSTRY HAS OVER ONE
POINT FIVE ONE POINT THREE
TRILLION DOLLARS IN OUTSTANDING
DEBT IN THE UNITED STATES. AND
A HUNDRED AND FIFTY BILLION OF
THAT IS IN CALIFORNIA AND THERE
IS NO RELIEF IN SIGHT. YET WE
NEED TO COME UP STATE BY STATE
WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO SEE HOW.
OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS WILL NOT
CONTINUALLY BE BURDENED WITH A
WHOLE MORTGAGE OF EDUCATIONAL
LOANS BUT BE ABLE TO AT LEAST
START WITH A MODICUM OF AN
INVESTMENT. THAT WILL THEN HELP
THEM- CONTINUE ON WITH THEIR
EDUCATIONAL CAREER AND NOT BE
SADDLED WITH A SEVERE DEBT. AND
WHAT THIS BILL DOES IS CREATE
THAT ONGOING REVENUE OF JUST
ONE PERCENT. TOWARDS FUTURE
EDUCATION- LOANS ONE TIME FEE
SO THAT THAT FEEDING GOES INTO
THE TRUST TO FINANCE THE CAL
KIDS PROGRAM ON AN ONGOING
BASIS- THIS GIRL AS I MENTIONED
IS BEING HEARD IN THIS
COMMITTEE AND IT'S GOING TO BE
GOING NEXT TO BANKING. AND I'VE
BEEN WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH
THE BANKING COMMITTEE TO FIGURE
OUT HOW WE CAN ADVANCE THIS
WITHOUT HARMING FUTURE
GENERATION OF YOUNG BORROWERS.
WITH THAT I WANTED TO SAY THANK
YOU TO ALL THE WORK THAT THIS
COMMITTEE HAS DONE- IN
IMPROVING THIS BILL AND WITH ME
IS NIGH RENO HOW BAD YOUNG WHO
IS A SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER- FOR
HER COMMENTS ON THIS BILL.
THANK YOU- TRINITARIAN FOR YOUR
PRESENTATION FOR BRINGING THIS
BILL FORWARD- UNFORTUNATELY WE
ARE HAVING- PROBLEMS WITH THE
TELEPHONE LINES AND WE'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO. TAKE A BREAK.
RECESS UNTIL THEY CAN FIX THE
TELEPHONE LINES. AND HOPEFULLY
THEY WON'T TAKE TOO LONG AND-
S. U. MAYBE NOT TO GO TOO FAR
BUT WE NEED TO TAKE A RECESS
UNTIL THEY CAN GET THE
TELEPHONE LINES FIX OKAY SO
WITH THAT. WE'RE IN RECESS.
THIS IS NICK WITH EIGHTEEN T.
ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAR. MY
SOUNDCHECK. YES YES YES YES YES.
THANK YOU WITNESSES LET ME

COMMITTEE ANY QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS. MR LIVING. SHARE AND
THANK YOU TO US OWNERS ARE IN
FOR OFFERING THIS IT'S- IT'S A
FASCINATING- CHALLENGE THAT
YOU'RE LOOKING TO ADDRESS I
THINK THAT IT'S YOU KNOW IN IN
THE WORK THAT YOU'VE DONE
LEADING UP TO HERE YOU KNOW
MAKING SURE THAT EVERY CHILD IN
CALIFORNIA KNOWS THAT THERE'S-
SOMETHING THERE FOR THEM- WHEN
IT'S TIME FOR THEM TO GO TO
COLLEGE. IS IT'S AN ADMIRABLE
GOAL- WE NEED TO DO THIS AT THE
BACK THE COST OF COLLEGE IS
SKYROCKETING SO I FULLY SUPPORT
THAT- THAT GOAL THAT YOU HAVE
AND THEN WE NEED TO CONTINUE
WORKING ON. HOW TO FIGURE OUT
HOW TO DO THAT IT ALSO RAISES.
IN THE WAY THAT YOU WANT TO
FUND THIS WHICH I THINK HAS HAS
MANY PROBLEMS- IN THAT WE'VE
DISCUSSED THIS I THINK A LOT OF
A LOT OF US RECORD RECOGNIZE
THAT. ALSO ALERTS US AND
REMINDS US ABOUT HOW WE FINANCE
HIGHER EDUCATION IN CALIFORNIA
SO. PEOPLE SOME PEOPLE ARE
EXPECTED TO PASTE. SOME OR ALL
OF THE COSTS OTHERS ARE GIVEN
GRANTS OR SCHOLARSHIPS. AND
DIED IN THEIR LIVING EXPENSES
WHICH ARE VERY EXPENSIVE AS
WELL WE KNOW THAT CERTAINLY IS
THE CASE FOR COMMUNITY COLLEGE
STUDENTS BUT- FOR FINANCE-
HIGHER READ. ALSO WITH PRIVATE
BANKING DOLLARS REALLY- THAT
THAT. MANY STUDENTS END UP-
WITH THAT DATA SO THERE'S THE
STATE RELATED AID THERE IS THE-
PHILANTHROPIC AID THAT OUR
UNIVERSITIES ARE NOW SEEKING.-AND THEN THERE IS THE BANKING
MONEY- THAT- ISSUES ALSO RELY
ON THE FUN- THAT THAT WHOLE
HIGHER EDUCATION JOURNEY. E IF
WE AD MORE STATE SUPPORT FOR
WE WOULDN'T WE WOULDN'T NEED
THEM TO DO SO HAVE ANY SAVINGS
ACCOUNTS OR INVESTMENT
ACCOUNTS- IS ONE WAY TO DO THAT
BUT HOW WE FUNDED IS REALLY
TRICKY AND THERE'S GOTTA BE A
WAY FOR PERHAPS NOT JUST THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA OFFLOAD
THIS BOTH TO PRIVATE LENDERS
AND THEN TO STUDENTS TO PAY
THAT BACK- BUT TO FIGURE OUT A
DIFFERENT WAY I MEAN PEOPLE
TALK ABOUT STATE BANKS THINGS
LIKE THAT BUT HOW ELSE CAN THE
STATE FUND FUTURE. COSTS OF
HIGHER EDUCATION THAN THE WAY
THAT WE'RE DOING IT- SO YOU
KNOW CONTINUE ON THIS JOURNEY
WITH THIS BILL TRY TO FIGURE
OUT A WAY TO FIND THIS FOR.
FUTURE STUDENTS- BUT I YOU KNOW
I THINK THAT A LOT OF US HAVE
CONCERNS THAT THERE'S NO WAY.
WE COULD ASK FOR A TAX ON BEING
SO IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PASSED
ON. TO CURRENT BORROWERS- OF
THAT MONEY OR TRYING TO GET
THROUGH COLLEGE SO- A LOT OF
WORK TO DO BUT THIS IS THE
FIRST STOP. ON THE LEGISLATIVE
JOURNEY FOR THE BILL SO LET'S
GIVE YOU SOME TIME TO WORK ON
IT THANKS. THIS REVIEW THANK
YOU. THANK YOU- MISTER CHAIR
AND HONEST IN HIS AREA AND
WE'VE HAD DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE
THIS PARTICULAR BILL MY ONLY
CONCERN WOULD BE THAT- THIS
COSTS SOMEHOW GETS PASSED DOWN
TO THE STUDENTS. AND I KNOW
YOU'VE BEEN WORKING REALLY HARD
ON IT AND I APPRECIATE THE WORK
I WILL BE SUPPORTING IT AND AS
WE DISCUSSED I JUST WANNA MAKE
SURE THAT WE ARE VERY
CONSCIENTIOUS ABOUT- BACK THE
COST NOT BEING PASSED ON TO.
STUDENTS BECAUSE AT THE END AND
THAT THE. THE PURPOSE OF THE
BILL SO THANK YOU AND I. YOU
THIS BILL TO THE TO THE- THANK
YOU. WITH YOUR JOINT. I THANK
YOU- THE SEMINARS IN SO IS- OUT
REMARKABLE- ALWAYS SAID WAS SAW
MY INTEREST AS WELL HELLO- THE
PARENTS SO WOULD TO PREPARE OR-
THE NECESSARY COLLEGE OF FUN
STUFF WITH YOUR CHILDREN AND I
PREVIOUSLY INTRODUCED MYSELF
FOR- INCENTIVIZING. THE PARENTS
OR EMPLOYERS TO MECCA-
SCHOLARSHIP CONTRIBUTIONS SO
FOR THEIR CHILDREN AND
GRANDPARENTS ALL ENCORES AND SO
QUIET DOG CONTRIBUTE DOES DAN
OF THOSE AMOUNT NO COULD BE TAX
DEDUCTIBLE- SO WAY OF- OF
PROMISCUITY ENCOURAGING
ESTABLISHING NECESSARY
SCHOLARSHIPS THIS IS- I'M NOT
UP TO ME IS SO UNIVERSAL- EVERY
CHILD. AND- YES I ENDED UP TO
IS TO AND FORM OF A TAX IF- FOR
THE POOR STUDENTS TO HOST OFF
PRIVATE THIS AND- YEAH. IN THE
FRONT S. ONE HAVE TO PAY. 1% OF
THE SOUL WOULD IT BE ADDITIONAL
FEE TO THEM ALL. WHAT WILL IT
BE DEDUCTED FROM THEIR- AMOUNT
OF LOANS ARE THEY ARE AND- AS
SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE A SO THIS
IS A TOTALLY TARIAN TYPE OF
APPROACH AND- THIS IS MANDATING
AND DOG. AFTER IF YOU
IMPLEMENTED OUT FROM NOW NOW
EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER WE HAVE NO
IDEA. WHAT THE SITUATION WOULD
BE- IN THE COLLEGE'S TUITION
POLICY RIGHT NOW ALL SO MUCH
MOVEMENT IS GOING ON- EVEN. FOR
COMMUNITY COLLEGES- TUITION
ISSUE BE ARE FREE OF CHARGE TO
YOU THERE ARE MANY- DIFFERENT
FORMS SO WE CAN ENCOURAGE. THE
STUDENTS- AND THE PARENTS HAVE
TO PREPARE FOR THE- NECESSARY
COLLEGE OF FUNDING BUT- THIS IS
OUR UNIVERSAL MANDATING I AM IN
THE FORM OF TAX SO. I WOULD
HAVE TO PULL. THE BILL. THANK
YOU. SURE IS THERE IN WOULD YOU
LIKE TO- GIVE US YOUR CLOSING.
REMARKS THANK YOU- FIRST AND
FOREMOST THANK YOU FOR THE ALL
THE COMMENTS- I ACTUALLY AGREE
WITH- MOST OF WHAT'S SAID HERE
ESPECIALLY WITH THE- WITH ALL
THREE SPEAKERS AND SENTIMENTS
OF THE NECESSITY OF DOING
SOMETHING TO. MAKE IT EASIER
AND AFFORDABLE FOR STUDENTS TO
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO
COLLEGE VOCATIONAL TRAINING
TECHNICAL TRAINING WHATEVER THE
OPPORTUNITY MAYBE TO ENHANCE
THEIR CAREER. AND SO THIS. BILL
WAS AIMING. TO CREATE AN
ENVIRONMENT WHERE IT PUTS THE
SEED MONEY FOR IT TO GROW. IT
ALSO ENCOURAGES PARENTS TO
PARTICIPATE IN THE FIVE TWENTY
NINE PLAN BECAUSE LET'S BE
CLEAR HERE. THOSE OF US WHO-
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE
THAT. MODICUM OF AN INVESTMENT
FOR OUR CHILDREN'S FUTURE CAN
DO SO BUT THAT'S SPEAKING TO
LESS THAN ABOUT ROUGHLY 4% OF
CALIFORNIANS HELLO CALIFORNIA
PARENTS. SO IT'S A VERY SMALL
NUMBER. AND SO IN ORDER TO
CREATE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR MORE
KIDS ESPECIALLY IN POORER
NEIGHBORHOODS TO BE ABLE. TO
HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO COMPETE
IN THE FUTURE AND ADVANCE THEIR
CAREERS THROUGH AN EDUCATIONAL
DEGREE OR ANY TYPE OF A DEGREE
THAT WILL HELP THEM. HAVE A
CAREER PATH WE NEED TO FIGURE
OUT HOW WE MAKE AN IMPORTANT
INITIAL INVESTMENT FOR THEM SO
THAT THEN THE PARENTS.
PHILANTHROPIC ORGANIZATIONS AND
EVERYBODY ELSE CAN HELP FINANCE
THE REST OF THE WAY THERE- I
COMPLETELY AGREE ON THE BANKING
SIDE OF THE ISSUE OF THE
CONCERNS I TO HAVE THAT CONCERN
BECAUSE IN NO WAY WOULD I WANT
MY BILL. CREATE A FEE THAT
WOULD THEN BE IMPOSED ON THE
CURRENT GENERATION OF STUDENTS
WHO NEED THAT MONEY TO BE ABLE
TO FINANCE THEIR OWN EDUCATION
SO. OBVIOUSLY THAT IS NOT THE
INTENTION IN FACT MOST BANKS IF
NOT ALL HAVE ALREADY WITHDRAWN
THEMSELVES FROM- EDUCATIONAL
LOANS LOAN INDUSTRY- WITH WALL
WELLS FARGO BEING ONE OF THE
LAST ONES. THEY SOLD THEIR
SHARE TO NELNET LAST YEAR- AND
AS YOU SEE WHAT'S GOING ON IN
THIS INDUSTRY AT LEAST THE
BANKING INDUSTRY HAS THE C. R.
A. THE COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT
ACT THAT IMPOSES UPON BANKS TO
ACTUALLY MAKE A REINVESTMENT
BACK INTO THE POOR COMMUNITIES
THAT THEY WORK IN SO THE BANKS
ARE COVERED. THE EDUCATIONAL
LENDING INDUSTRY DOES NOT HAVE.
SUCH A GOAL. AND BEING THAT
ALMOST ALL OF THEM OPERATE
OUTSIDE OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA YET REAP THE
BENEFITS OF A LARGE MARKET LIKE
CALIFORNIA. MORE THAN 10% OF
THE OUTSTANDING EDUCATION LOANS
ARE RIGHT HERE IN CALIFORNIA SO
WE'RE PAYING BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS OUT. AND NOT HAVING
THEM MAKE AN INVESTMENT INTO IT
SO. THIS WAS A LOFTY WAY OF
LOOKING AT HOW WE CAN ACHIEVE
REVENUE AND A LOT OF WORK
REMAINS TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE
OUT HOW WE DO THAT SO THAT WE
GENERATE THE REVENUE NECESSARY
FOR THE FOR THE STATE FOR THESE
CHILDREN FOR FUTURE CHILDREN TO
HAVE AN EDUCATION. BUT NOT DO
IT AT THE EXPENSE OF THE
CURRENT GENERATION OF STUDENTS
SO I SHARE THAT WITH YOU AND
I'M WORKING TOWARDS THAT GOAL
AND THIS BILL WILL MOST LIKELY
BE A TWO YEAR ENDEAVOR IN ORDER
TO BE ABLE TO SEE WHAT WE CAN
DO TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL. SO
WITH THAT I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR A VOTE AND THANK YOU FOR
YOUR COMMENTS THANK YOU MISTERS
ERIN I UNDERSTAND THE INTENT OF
YOUR BILL AND I'M PREPARED TO
SUPPORT IT TODAY. BUT I ASKED
YOU TO PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK
WITH MY COMMITTEE AND THE
BANKING AND FINANCE COMMITTEE
TO ADDRESS THE CONCERNS AS
OUTLINED ON PAGE THREE OF THE
ANALYSIS AND SINCE WE DO NOT
HAVE A QUORUM. THE WAIT FOR A
QUORUM TO- TAKE THE VOTE. THANK
YOU THANK YOU. WE WILL NOW MOVE.
TO FOR THE AUTHOR'S REQUEST
WE'LL BE HEARING A. B. ELEVEN
ELEVEN- FILE ITEM FOR AN
ASSEMBLY MEMBER BERMAN WHEN YOU
ARE READY. PLEASE PROCEED. FILE
ITEM FOR. A. B. ELEVEN ELEVEN.
THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN
COLLEAGUES AB ELEVEN ELEVEN
WOULD CREATE A COMMON COURSE
NUMBERING SYSTEM A CALIFORNIA
COMMUNITY COLLEGES MEANING THAT
COMPARABLE COURSES WOULD HAVE
THE SAME COURSE NUMBER AT ALL
COMMUNITY COLLEGES IN
CALIFORNIA. MANY COMMUNITY
COLLEGE STUDENTS TAKE COURSES
AT MULTIPLE COLLEGES WITHIN A
DISTRICT OR EVEN ACROSS
DISTRICTS WITHOUT A COMMON
COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM IT IS
HARDER FOR STUDENTS TO PLAN OUT
A COHERENT ROADMAP. TURNING
THEIR DEGREE. CALIFORNIA
CURRENTLY HAS THE COURSE
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER IN SYSTEM
C. ID SYSTEM WHICH IS A WAY TO
IDENTIFY COMPARABLE CALMING
FORCES. HOWEVER COURSES THAT
HAVE THE SAME C. ID NUMBER OR
STILL NUMBERED DIFFERENTLY FOR
THE STUDENTS. THESE DIFFERENCES
IN COURSE NUMBERS CAN
UNINTENTIONALLY SET STUDENTS
BACK SERVING AS A BARRIER TO
TIMELY TRANSFER. IN FEBRUARY.
THE GOVERNOR'S RECOVERY WITH
EQUITY TASK FORCE RELEASED A
REPORT WHICH INCLUDED A SET OF
RECOMMENDATIONS AIMED AT
HELPING CALIFORNIA'S HIGHER
EDUCATION SYSTEMS RECOVER FROM
THE PANDEMIC. ONE OF THE
RECOMMENDATIONS IS TO DEVELOP A
COMMON COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM
AT THE COMMUNITY COLLEGES SO
THAT STUDENTS TRANSFERRING TO
FOUR YEAR INSTITUTIONS KNOW. AS
THEY'RE PURSUING THEIR CURSES
THAT THEY ARE MEETING THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE RECEIVING
INSTITUTIONS. MAYBE ELEVEN
ELEVEN IS BASED ON THIS
RECOMMENDATION WOULD REQUIRE
THE CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY
COLLEGES TO ADOPT A COMMON
COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM BY
STARTING WITH COURSES INCLUDED
IN THE C. ID. AND EXPANDING TO
JERK TO INCLUDE GENERAL
EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS AND
TRANSFER PATHWAY COURSES. THIS
BILL BUILDS UPON C. ID AND
RECOGNIZE THE C. IDEAS A
CRITICAL STEP TO DEVELOPING A
STUDENT FACING COMMON COURSE
NUMBERING SYSTEM. HAVING THE
SAME COURSE NUMBER FOR ALL
COMPARABLE COURSES AT ALL
COMMUNITY COLLEGES WOULD REDUCE
UNNECESSARY CONFUSION. IS
ADVISING REDUCE EXCESS CREDIT
CANNULATION AND MAKE IT EASIER
FOR COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS
TO TRANSFER AND EARN THEIR
DEGREE. SEEKING STUDENTS BOTH
TIME AND MONEY. I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR A VOTE. THANK YOU MR

CHANCELLOR GANG PLEASE PROCEED
WHEN YOU ARE READY. GOOD
MORNING MR MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE REALLY APPRECIATE THE
OPPORTUNITY HERE. THE SUCCESS
OF A LARGER- SINCE IT'S VERY
INSTEAD OF A LARGE MULTI
CALIBER DISTRICT WE HAVE FOUR
SEPARATELY ACCREDITED COLLEGES.
AND ARE THE SECOND LARGEST
COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN
TERMS OF THE PALACE GO TO THE
MOMENT. SO OUR FACULTY HAS BEEN
PIONEERS IN ADOPTING COMMON
COURSE NUMBER ACROSS OUR FOUR
COLLEGES AND THE BENEFITS IN
YOUR FROM A STUDENT ARE JUST
THE MPS AND REDUCING. BARRIERS
TO COMPLETION AND IN OUR LARGE
DIVERSE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
SYSTEM ACROSS CALIFORNIA. MANY
OF OUR STUDENTS TO ATTEND
COLLEGES OUTSIDE OF ONE
DISTRICT SO REDUCING BARRIERS
AND MAKING THE PROCESS MORE
SIMPLE IS JUST A HUGE BENEFIT.
FOR OUR STUDENTS. AND I DON'T
THINK THERE'S MUCH DISAGREEMENT
THAT SIMPLICITY BENEFITS OUR
STUDENTS BUT THE REALITY IS
WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT
DISTRICTS IN SUCH A COMMITMENT
TO A ROBUST SHARED GOVERNANCE
PROCESS. WE HAVE AN EASIER TIME
AGREEING ON A CONCEPT AND WE DO
ACTUALLY IMPLEMENTED THE
CONCEPT AT TIMES AND THAT'S
WHERE EFFORTS WHITE AT ELEVEN
ELEVEN CAN REALLY GIVE US THE
KNOWLEDGE. AND AN INCENTIVE. TO
GO THAT FINAL MILE. I AGREE TO
THE TIME. THE ACTUAL AMPLE
SOMETHING THAT WILL BE. BENEFIT
OUR STUDENTS FOR MANY YEARS TO

GAVEL IN COLLEGE. AT ELEVEN
ELEVEN ASKED THE LARGEST SYSTEM
OF HIGHER EDUCATION TO ADOPT A
COMMON COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM
WITHOUT A VIABLE PLAN FOR
DEVELOPING THE SYSTEM. EVEN
THOUGH THIS IS A TRANSFER BILL
THE CSU AND UC HAVE BEEN LEFT
OUT OF THE CONVERSATION AND ARE
NOT BEING ASKED TO OVERHAUL
THEIR SYSTEMS. IT STILL DOES
NOT CONSIDER LOCAL CONTROL THE
STRUCTURE OF ACADEMIC
DEPARTMENTS RETIRED NUMBERS
NEEDED DISCREPANCIES HE
QUITTING OLD WITH NEW NUMBERS
OR NEW SUPPLEMENTAL COURSES.
THIS IS NOT AS SIMPLE AS
CHANGING A NUMBER ON A WEBSITE
THIS BILL WOULD REQUIRE
THOUSANDS OF HOURS OF
DEVELOPMENT CODING TRAINING AND
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO
IMPLEMENT. IT WOULD DISTRACT
FACULTY AT A TIME WHEN OUR
STUDENTS NEED OUR SUPPORT AND
PRESENCE WE FACULTY NEED TO
SPEND OUR TIME IMPROVING OUR
ONLINE PEDAGOGY AND
DECOLONIZING OUR CURRICULA TO
SERVE THE MOST DIVERSE STUDENTS
IN THE NATION. WE APPRECIATE

AND HAPPENED- AND HAVING MANY
PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS AT THE

TO CONTINUING THE CONVERSATION

UNDERSTANDING OF. ANY CONCERNS
THEY MIGHT HAVE ABOUT CREATING
A STUDENT FACING COMMON COURSE
NUMBERING SYSTEM TO MAKE IT
EASIER FOR THEM. TO MOVE-
THROUGH THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
PROCESS AND BE ABLE TO TRANSFER.
THANK YOU I WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR FOR HIS BILL. AND I WANT
TO- SHARE. THAT SOMETIMES
THINGS THAT LOOK SIMPLE OR NOT.
AND SO I'M NOT SURPRISED THAT.
COMMON CORE'S NUMBER IN WHICH
SOUNDS SO EASY. HAS THE EQUAL
LEVEL OF COMPLEXITY TO IT. I AM
SENSITIVE TO THE CONCERNS
RAISED BY THE OPPOSITION AND I
TRUSTED THE AUTHOR AND THE
STAFF WILL CONTINUE TO.
OUTREACH AND FIND AREAS OF
COMMON UNDERSTANDING.
FUNDAMENTALLY STUDENTS SHOULD
BE ABLE TO REGISTER FOR THEIR
CLASSES KNOWING WHAT THE CLASS
IS WHAT THE PER RIGHT WHICH IS
OUR AND HOW THAT COURSE WILL
HELP THEM ACCOMPLISH THEIR
EDUCATIONAL GOALS I. THINK THE
BELL BILL IS A STEP IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION AND WHEN WE
HAVE A QUORUM I WILL BE
SUPPORTING VOTING AND SUPPORT.
AND WITHOUT A QUORUM WE'RE NOW
GOING TO GO TO. YOUR NEXT BILL
MISTER BERMAN A. B. NINE TWO
EIGHT FINAL ITEM THREE. THANK
YOU MR CHAIR. I'M HAPPY THE
ONLY SERVICING I'M HAPPY TO
ACCEPT THE COMMITTEE SUGGESTED
AMENDMENT SPECIFIED IN THE
ANALYSIS AS CHAIR OF THE SELECT
COMMITTEE ON THE MASTER PLAN
FOR HIGHER EDUCATION I'VE HEARD
DIRECTLY FROM STUDENTS WHO HAVE
SHARED THEIR TRANSFER
EXPERIENCE THE MESSAGE WAS LOUD
AND CLEAR THE TRANSFER PROCESS
IS TOO COMPLEX CONFUSING AND
DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE. AS
CALIFORNIA BEGINS TO RECOVER
FROM THE PANDEMIC NOW MORE THAN
EVER IT IS CRITICAL THAT
INCREASED DEGREE ATTAINMENT
IMPROVE TIME 2 DEGREES AND
CLOSE A RACIAL EQUITY GAPS
EIGHTY NINE TWENTY IT WOULD
TRANSFORM THE TRANSFER PROCESS.
THREE THREE SIGNIFICANT STUDENT
CENTERED PROVISIONS. FIRST THE
BOLD CREEDON INTERSEGMENT
ELIMINATION COMMITTEE TO
PROVIDE A PERMANENT VENUE. TO
FACILITATE INTER SEGMENTAL
COORDINATION AND GREATER STATE
LEVEL ACCOUNTABILITY FOR
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ASSOCIATE
DEGREE FOR TRANSFER. AND A
FOCUS ON IMPROVING TRANSFER
OUTCOMES FOR ALL STUDENTS.
SECOND THE BILL WOULD SET A
TARGET DATE FOR CSU AND UC TO
ESTABLISH A SINGULAR LOWER
DIVISION GENERAL EDUCATION
PATHWAY THAT NEEDS TRANSFER
ADMISSION TO BOTH. GOING FROM
TWO GENERAL EDUCATION PATHWAYS
TO ONE MAKES IT EASIER FOR
STUDENTS. TO APPLY TO BOTH CSU
AND UC AND KEEP THEIR OPTIONS
OPEN. THIRD THE BORDER PARK
COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS TO
BE PLACED. ON AN ASSOCIATE
DEGREE FOR TRANSFER PATHWAY
WHERE ONE EXISTS FOR THEIR
MAJOR. SINCE THE AT T.
GUARANTEES ADMISSION TO THE CSU
SYSTEM AND PARTICIPATING
PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS. THIS
PROVISION WILL MAXIMIZE THE
PROBABILITY THAT A STUDENT WILL
TRANSFER AND COMPLETE A
BACHELOR'S DEGREE IN A TIMELY
MANNER. EVEN AT T. DOES NOT
EXIST IN THE STUDENTS CHOSE A
MAJOR. THEN THERE IS NO AT T.
FOR THE STUDENT TO BE PLACED
ON. IMPORTANTLY STUDENTS CAN
OPT OUT. AT OUR POWER TO CHOOSE
WHAT IS BEST FOR THEM AND THEIR
EDUCATIONAL GOALS. ALSO NOTHING
IN THIS BILL PROHIBITS A
STUDENT FROM BEING ON THE AT T.
PATHWAY AND ALSO APPLYING TO
TRANSFER. TO UC OR PRIVATE
INSTITUTION. THE TROUBLING
REALITIES OF THE STATUS QUO IS
FAILING OUR STUDENTS. ONLY 20%
OF STUDENTS FOR THE TRANSFER
GOAL SUCCESSFULLY TRANSFER
WITHIN SIX YEARS. THIS IS
SHOCKING AND UNACCEPTABLE
STUDENTS DESERVE BETTER IN
CALIFORNIA CAN DO BETTER. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A VOTE.
THANK YOU MR BERMAN THE FIRST

GATEWAY TO OPPORTUNITY. AND
IMPROVED ECONOMIC OUTCOMES THEY

IN ADVANCING EDUCATIONAL EQUITY
FOR THE LARGE BLACK IN LATIN
NEXT YOU CAN POPULATIONS THEY
SUPPORT. UNFORTUNATELY
ACHIEVING TIMELY TRANSFER
REMAINS OUT OF REACH FOR FAR
TOO MANY STUDENTS DUE TO NO
FAULT OF THEIR OWN BUT RATHER
DUE TO THE COMPLEX
TRANSFORMATIONS THAT THEY MUST
NAVIGATE. TO BUILD UPON
ASSEMBLY MEMBER BERMAN'S
REMARKS HIGHLIGHTING THE
DISSIMILAR TRANSFERASE THE DATA
IS EVEN MORE ALARMING FOR OUR
BLACK AND LATINX STUDENTS WELL
THAT NEXT DIDN'T REPRESENT 51%
OF STUDENTS WHO DECLARE A GOAL
OF EARNING A DEGREE IN
SUCCESSFULLY TRANSFERRING. THEY
ONLY REPRESENT 35% OF STUDENTS
WHO TRANSFER WITHIN FOUR YEARS
FOR BLACK STUDENTS THIS DATA IS
EVEN WORSE. EIGHTY NINE TO
EIGHT DRAWS INTENTIONAL STATE
WIDE FOCUS TO STRENGTHENING
CALIFORNIA'S TRANSFER PROCESS
AND STREAMLINES OUR TRANSFER
PROCESS TO BE EASIER FOR
STUDENTS TO NAVIGATE BY
BUILDING ON TEN YEARS OF
PROGRESS OF THE ASSOCIATE

THIS. ASSEMBLY MEMBERS ADVANTIS
YOU MAY BEGIN WHEN YOU ARE
READY. THANK YOU SO MUCH MISTER
CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE FOR A LONG ME TO
PRESENT SOMEBODY BUILT ELEVEN
EIGHTY FIVE TODAY. AS THIS
STATE FOR DECADES WE HAVE BEEN
WORKING TOWARDS IMPROVING
ACCESS TO HIGHER EDUCATION
HOWEVER THROUGH THE COVER
NINETEEN PANDEMIC INCREASED
RATES OF HOSPITALIZATION AND
DEATH AND UNEMPLOYMENT HAVE
DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED ARE
UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES
INCLUDING STUDENTS OF COLOR AND
LOW INCOME STUDENTS. AS THEY
HAVE WATCHED FAMILY MEMBERS GET
INFECTED REQUIRE
HOSPITALIZATION OR EVEN DIED
MANY STUDENTS HAVE HAD TO LEAVE
COLLEGE IN ORDER TO FIND WORKS
THEY CAN HELP SUPPORT THEIR
FAMILIES. THIS IS- AN ABSTRACT
PROBLEM THE NUMBER STUDENTS
ENROLLING IN COLLEGE
IMMEDIATELY AFTER GRADUATING
FROM HIGH SCHOOL DROP NEARLY
22% JUST LAST FALL THIS TREND
IS UNDERMINING THE CONSIDERABLE
PROCESS THAT STUDENTS OF COLOR
HAVE BEEN MADE. HAD MADE AN
ACCESS THE INSTITUTIONS OF
HIGHER EDUCATION IN RECENT
DECADES AS WE ALL KNOW INSURING
THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR HIGHER
EDUCATION ARE MORE AFFORDABLE
IS VITAL TO IMPROVING ACCESS TO
OUR COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES.
DESTRUCTIONS AND LIFE EVENTS
CAUSED BY THE PANDEMIC HAVE
MADE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR MANY
STUDENTS TO MEET CERTAIN CAL
GRANT PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY
REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO TIME
LIMITS FOR ELIGIBILITY
INCLUDING THOSE GREAT-
REGARDING A STUDENT'S AGE.
WITHOUT THE PER OF AN
ADDITIONAL TIME IN ADDITIONAL
YEAR TO MEET THESE CAL GRANT
REQUIREMENTS MANY STUDENTS
ESPECIALLY LOW INCOME STUDENTS
AND STUDENTS OF COLOR WILL BE
UNABLE TO ACCESS THE FINANCIAL
AID THEY NEED TO ACHIEVE THEIR
DREAMS OF HIGHER EDUCATION. AB
ELEVEN EIGHTY FIVE WOULD
PROVIDE RELIEF TO THE STUDENTS
BY ALLOWING THEM TO HAVE AN
ADDITIONAL YEAR TO MEET. I. CAL
GRANT ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS.
WITH ME TODAY TO TESTIFY IN
SUPPORT OF THE BILL IS ERICA
METAL FROM THE HISPANIC
ASSOCIATION OF COLLEGES AND

ERICA MERRILL BEHALF OF HOW
COOL I AM CALLING IN STRONG
SUPPORT OF AB ELEVEN EIGHTY
FIVE. AS AN ASSOCIATION OUR
MISSION IS TO CHAMPION HIS
DEMOCRATS IN HIGHER EDUCATION
AND A KEY PART OF THAT ADVOCACY
IS TO ENSURE THAT OUR LIVE NEXT
YOU DON'T. MANY OF THEM ARE
FIRST GENERATION AND LOW INCOME
HAVE ACCESS TO THE FINANCIAL
AID THAT IS SO CRITICAL NOT
ONLY FOR MOWING THE BUT
LOWERING THE BARRIER TO HIGHER
EDUCATION BUT ALSO SUCCEEDING
IN COMPLETING THEIR DEGREE. WE
ALL NOTICED DEMOCRATS TAKING A
DISPROPORTIONATE TOLL ON OUR
STUDENTS AND FAMILIES OF COLOR
IN CALIFORNIA 55% OF KIDS WHO
TOLD STUDENTS ABOUT BEING. WE
KNOW FROM DATA THAT ASSET AND
KEEP APPLICATIONS DROPPED
SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THIS
PANDEMIC INDICATING THAT FEWER
FOR LOWER INCOME STUDENTS PLAN
ON ATTENDING COLLEGE THIS FALL
IN FACT THE CALIFORNIA
COMMUNITY COLLEGES WERE MANY
LATINO STUDENTS START THEIR
ACADEMIC CAREERS HAVE ALREADY
SEEN A SIGNIFICANT DECLINE IN
THEIR OFFICE. THIS INDICATOR
MOST ECONOMICALLY INSECURE
STUDENTS ARE NOT ENROLLING IN
COLLEGE STRAIGHT OUT OF HIGH
SCHOOL IN GREATER NUMBERS THAN
NORMAL WE BELIEVE THE VARIETY
OF REASONS MOST OF THEM ARE
ECONOMICS. AND A LAW STUDENTS
HAVE ONLY A YEAR AFTER HIGH
SCHOOL GRADUATION TO USE THEIR
CATTLE ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM.
AFTER THAT TIME TO TURN INTO A
COMPETITIVE PROGRAM POOL WHERE
THERE ARE FAR TOO FEW COOK
CALIBRATE FOR THE NUMBER OF
STUDENTS WHO WANT THEM. WE URGE
THE LEGISLATURE ADMINISTRATION
TO AT LEAST ALLOW THESE LOW
INCOME STUDENTS WHO WERE
IMPACTED BY COPE WITH
ADDITIONAL TIME TO ENROLL AND
COMPLETE COLLEGE WITH ACCESS TO
RETIREMENT CAL GRANT.
DEPENDABLE BECAUSE ACCORDING TO
THE STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES.
AND THE STATE IS IN AN ECONOMIC
DECISION TO ALLOW THEM TO USE
THEIR COVERAGE IN THE FUTURE WE
URGE YOUR SUPPORT FOR EIGHTY
ELEVEN EIGHTY FIVE SO THAT MORE
OF OUR STATES LOW INCOME
STUDENTS CAN COMPLETE. THEIR
DEGREE IN THE FUTURE. THANK YOU.

B. FOURTEEN SIXTY SEVEN FILE
ITEM SEVEN MR VANTAGE YOU MAY
PROCEED WHEN YOU'RE READY THANK
YOU MR CHAIRMAN MEMBERS THANK
YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO PRESENT
ASSEMBLY BILL FOURTEEN SIXTY
SEVEN TODAY AND THINKING YOUR
COMMITTEE STAFF FOR THEIR
DILIGENCE WORK ON THIS BILL
BEFORE I BEGIN MY PRESENTATION
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THAT I
WILL BE ACCEPTING THE
AMENDMENTS ARE NOTED ON PAGE
FOR THE HOUSES- ONCE THE BILL
DOES REACH THE JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE. OVER RECENT DECADES
IT HAS BEEN CLEAR THAT
UNIVERSITIES NEED TO REEVALUATE
THEIR APPROACH TO THE ISSUE OF
SEXUAL ASSAULT AND SHIFT TO
TRAUMA CENTERED POLICIES TO
BETTER SERVE THE NEEDS OF
SURVIVORS ONE OF THE MOST
IMPORTANT POLICIES THAT MAKE
SURVIVORS MORE LIKELY TO REPORT
AND FOLLOW THROUGH WILL- WHICH
CHARGES IS TO. IS THE PRESENCE
OF TRAINED SEXUAL ASSAULT
COUNSELORS ON CAMPUSES HOWEVER
MANY COLLEGE CAMPUSES ARE THEIR
POLICY IN THIS SPACE FOCUS ON
COMPLIANCE. AND ARE OFTEN AT
ODDS WITH THE TRAUMA AND
SURVIVOR CENTERED RESPONSE THAT
SEXUAL ASSAULT COUNSELORS DO
PROVIDE. THIS MEANS THAT SEXUAL
ASSAULT COUNSELORS ARE OFTEN
FORCED TO CHOOSE BETWEEN
SUPPORTING THE NEEDS OF
SURVIVORS AND COMPLYING WITH
CAMPUS POLICIES THAT MAY NOT
PRIORITIZE THOSE NEEDS. TO
FULLY SUPPORT SURVIVORS IN A
TRAUMA INFORMED AND SURVIVOR
CENTERED PRACTICE IT IS VITAL
THAT SEXUAL ASSAULT COUNSELORS
ARE ABLE TO FOCUS PRIMARILY. ON
PROVIDING FOR THE NEEDS OF
SURVIVORS. THE ROLE OF THE
SEXUAL ASSAULT COUNSELORS TO
PROVIDE ALL POSSIBLE OPTIONS TO
THE SURVIVOR AND TO SUPPORT ANY
DECISION THE SURVIVOR MADE. OR
MAKES. THIS MAY EVEN INCLUDE
ACTIONS AGAINST THE UNIVERSITY
THIS MEANS THAT. THOUGH THEY
MAY BE DOING WHAT IS BEST
INTEREST FOR THE SURVIVOR OF
SEXUAL ASSAULT COUNSELOR MAY
FEAR LOSING THEIR EMPLOYMENT OR
FACING OTHER KINDS OF
DISCIPLINARY ACTION. WHEN
UNIVERSITIES MAINTAIN POLICIES
THAT HAMPER THE ABILITY OF A
SEXUAL ASSAULT COUNSELOR TO
OPERATE INDEPENDENTLY THEY
ENABLE A CAMPUS CLIMATE DOT
DOES CONDONE SEXUAL VIOLENCE
AND SILENCES SURVIVORS. AB
FORTY SIXTY SEVEN WILL PROVIDE
CLARITY TO SUCH SITUATIONS BY
ESTABLISHING THAT SEXUAL
ASSAULT COUNSELORS ARE
INDEPENDENT OF THE CAMPUS TITLE
NINE OFFICE. IT WOULD ALSO
ALLOW SEXUAL SO CAMP COUNSELORS
TO MAINTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY
WITH SURVIVORS THIS BILL WILL
ALLOW CAMPUS BASED SEXUAL
ASSAULT COUNSELORS TO HAVE
ADEQUATE PROTECTIONS AND THE
ABILITY TO ACT INDEPENDENTLY
FROM THE UNIVERSITY WITHOUT
FEAR OR RICHARD GUY RETRIBUTION.
BY ENSURING THAT CAMPUS CAMPUS
SEXUAL ASSAULT COUNSELORS HAVE
THE SUPPORT THEY NEED TO DO
THEIR JOBS WE WILL ENSURE THAT
THEY IN TURN HAVE BETTER TOOLS
TO SUPPORT STUDENT SURVIVORS
WITH ME TO TESTIFY IN SUPPORT
OF THIS MEASURE TODAY IS NICOLE
BUT AT A- DOCTORAL STUDENT AT
THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN.
SHE'S ALSO A NATIONAL SCIENCE
FOUNDATION GRADUATE RESEARCH
FELLOW WHO RESEARCH FOCUSES ON
HOW UNIVERSITIES MANAGE SEXUAL
VIOLENCE. THANK YOU MR RUN

PROCEED WITH YOUR TESTIMONY
WHENEVER YOU'RE READY. GOOD
AFTERNOON MY NAME IS NICOLE
THERE I'M A DOCTORAL CANDIDATE
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN
AND I THIRTY CAMPUS SEXUAL
VIOLENCE. IN MY RESEARCH I'VE
SEEN THE WAY VICTIM ADVOCATES
ARE PULLED IN TWO DIRECTIONS
FOR BETWEEN ADVOCATING FOR
SURVIVORS AND PROTECTING THEIR
INSTITUTION. APPLE UNIVERSITY I
THOUGHT STUDIED PROHIBITED
ADVOCATE FROM TELLING A
SURVIVOR THAT THEIR EXPERIENCE
THAT THE DIFFERENT DEFINITION
OF SEXUAL ASSAULT. OR MAKING
INFORMATION ABOUT REPORTING
PROCESS EASILY AVAILABLE AS A
RESULT MANY SURVIVORS WHO
BELIEVE THEY HAVE FILED REPORTS
CORRECTLY HAVE MADE MISTAKES
BUT THE REALTOR EFFORT. I THINK
THE MEDICAID CLIFF CORRECT
THESE MISSTEPS BUT THEY WEREN'T
ALLOWED TO HELP. THE TENSION
AND ROLLED WAVE ON MEDICARE
MANY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MENTAL
HEALTH BECAUSE OF THEIR WORK
INCLUDING SUICIDALITY. SOME
WERE FORCED TO QUIT IN AN ACT
OF SELF PRESERVATION OTHERS
WERE PUSHED OUT WHEN THEY TRIED
TO BEND THE RULES TO SUPPORT
SURVIVORS EFFECTIVELY. AS A
RESULT THE VICTIM ADVOCACY
OFFICE BECAME MORE OF ALL THE
DOORS STAFF WHO LEFT THEIR
POSITIONS JUST BECAUSE THEY GOT
GOOD AT THEIR JOBS. THE
OPERATIVE UNDERSTAFFED A NEW
HIRES WERE UNDERPREPARED TO
NAVIGATE UNIVERSITY SPECIFIC
POLICIES AND PROGRAMMES. DID
HURT SURVIVORS THE RESOURCE OF
LEGISLATORS ARE BROUGHT TO
CAMPUS ARE OUT OF REACH WITHOUT
A TON OF VICTIM ADVOCATES. BILL
COULD CHANGE THAT AND I URGE
YOU TO SUPPORT IT THANK YOU.

CORRECT THEY WERE QUEUING UP-
AT THE WRONG TIME THANK YOU-
WILL GO TO THE COMMITTEE THEN
ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS THE
COMMITTEE- MR CARTER CHOICE. AS
A MEMBER OF LOCAL I- SEE- NOW
SOME MERIT SEE HERE INCLUDE
INCREASING THE TRANSPARENCY ON
THEIR FINANCIAL- SITUATION IS-
HOWEVER WHEN YOU REQUIRE AT
THIS- FINANCIAL AID REPORTS- TO
BE MANDATED OF IDEAS SO- BILL
OR TO THE PRIVATE NONPROFIT
COLLEGES SO. WITH THAT DATA YOU
HAVE COLLECTED WHAT IS YOUR-
PLAN WHAT. TO DO WITH THAT
THOSE THOSE DATA. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH AS YOU KNOW- BECAUSE
THIS IS TAX SUBSIDIZED AND
THERE'S PUBLIC TAXPAYER SUPPORT
FOR THIS WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT
THESE INDICTMENTS ARE GOING FOR
THE INTENDED PURPOSE IS TO
ENSURE THAT IT'S DIRECTLY GOING
TO THE STUDENTS. AS YOU KNOW
THERE ARE MANY ENDOWMENTS THAT
HAVE GROWN TO BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS AND CONTINUES THE DUDE
IS- AND THAT TRAJECTORY AND SO
WE WANT TO HELP INSURE THAT IS
GOING FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE.
SO DOES THAT MEAN THAT- YOU
NATURALLY YOU MAY. REQUIRE OR
EVEN NONPROFIT PRIVATE
COLLEGES- WHEN THEY HAVE- IT
ENOUGH FOR EXCEEDING CERTAIN
AMOUNT OF WEIGHT AND ALMOST SO
FOR THEM TO SPEND DOWN AND UP-
IN PROVIDING FINANCIAL AID TO
STUDENTS. I THINK THE INTENDED
PURPOSE TO ENSURE THAT THE
RESOURCES ARE GOING DIRECTLY TO
THOSE INTENDED PURPOSES FOR
THOSE STUDENTS SPECIFICALLY AND
THAT WE NEED TO SHED LIGHT ON
MAKING SURE THAT WE WORK WITH
INSTITUTIONS BOTH PUBLIC AND
PRIVATE TO ENSURE THAT THAT'S
ACTUALLY HAPPENING. OKAY I- SEE
YEAH. THIS IS- YEAH THEY HAVE
GOOD TASTE GOOD SIZE SO IT IS
SYSTEM SOME SCHOOLS- HAVE
ACCUMULATED A PIANIST AS YOU
HAVE SEEN MY SHOWN IN THE DATA
SEVERAL HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS.
IN COLLEGES HAVE ACCUMULATED
AND- WHAT THEY WILL DO- IN THE
ENCOURAGING THEM OR MAKING THEM
TO SPEND PEOPLE'S MONEY FOR
FINANCIAL AID THAT IS SO GOOD I
THINK- NTEND TO BUT- PRIVATE
COLLEGES. WHEN THE STATE
DOESN'T PROVIDE ANY DIRECT AID
TO THE SCHOOL EVEN SO SOON SO
MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR A
GRANT- I MEAN IT COULD BE-
INDIVIDUAL ACADEMIC FREEDOM-
THEY MAY HAVE A CERTAIN PLANS
FOR THE FUTURE- THE CAMPUS
EXPANSION OR- BUILDING
PROJECTS- ETCETERA SO- IS- IS-
IS SELECTED INTRUSION INTO THE
ACADEMIC FREEDOM- WHEN WE DON'T
PROVIDE THE- ANY DIRECT AID TO
TWO PRIVATE SCHOOLS. V. DE AS
AS YOU AS YOU MAY UNDERSTAND-
TAXES DOWN WITH DAVID DOMINANCE
THE TAXATION IS PUBLICLY
SUBSIDIZED AT TAXPAYERS'
BECAUSE THEY RECEIVE THAT
BENEFIT THAT THERE'S COMES
ALONG WITH THE OBLIGATION TO
HAVE GREATER TRANSPARENCY IN
THE PROCESS. AND SO THAT'S WHAT
THE BILL IS INTENDED TO BE ABLE
TO DO TO ENSURE THAT IN FACT
THAT'S ACTUALLY WHAT'S
HAPPENING AND IF INDEED THAT
YOU ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE
TAX BENEFITS ASSOCIATED WITH
ENDOWMENTS IN THE STATE. OKAY
THANK YOU. THANK YOU DR CHOI
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
FROM THE COMMITTEE. PLEASE
SELL- IS SINCE SO THE CURRENT
AND DOMINANCE- AND THOSE
RESPONSIBLE INSTITUTIONS MODEL
FOR THE ODOMETER NONPROFITS AND
THE MONEY IS ALREADY TAXED AND
WHEN THE DONOR. GIVE THAT MONEY
R. AS A PARTY IN DAMAGE TO THE
INSTITUTION. NOW THERE'S
ALREADY FEDERAL LAW THAT
REGULATES HOW. IT WOULD BE
AGAINST THE LAW FOR AN
INSTITUTION TO MISAPPROPRIATE
FUNDS. AND AT THE INTENTION OF
THE DONOR SO IS THIS A LITTLE
BIT DUPLICITOUS IF THERE'S
ALREADY A LAWN THERE IS ALREADY
A PROCESS TO MONITOR-
ENDOWMENTS AND NONPROFIT FUNDS.
NO OVER THEM TO THE CONTRARY
IT'S ACTUALLY- TO HELP INSURE
THAT THERE'S GREATER
TRANSPARENCY ON DATA PURPOSE AS
YOU MAY KNOW SOME OF THESE
INDICTMENTS HAVE GROWN. TO
FIFTEEN TWENTY EIGHT AND UP
BILLION DOLLARS- AND THESE
ENDOWMENTS AND WHEN THEY ANSWER
THE QUESTION IS WHAT IS THE
PURPOSE OF IT IS BEING SPENT
DIRECTLY TO THAT OF THEIR
DIRECTIVE PURPOSE IN ADDITION
AS YOU KNOW THAT THERE IS A
FINANCIAL TAX BENEFIT FOR THAT
INDIVIDUALS HAVE THE RIGHT
OFFICE FOR THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS
BECAUSE WE MADE FOR THEN
DOWNLOADS I THINK THAT'S
FUNDAMENTALLY THE QUESTION IS
WHAT'S ENOUGH FOR A DOWN TO
GROW TO FIFTY BILLION TWO
HUNDRED BILLION. IF THAT IT WAS
THE STRUCTURE IN PLACE
SPECIFICALLY WAS TO HELP FORD'S
AGAIN INTENDED PURPOSE SELF
THIS IS A TRANSPARENCY BILL
THIS IS JUST ABOUT MAKING SURE
THAT THE DATA IS THERE TO BEST
HELP ENSURE THAT- THOSE ATTEND
PURPOSES ARE ACTUALLY OCCURRING
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
WE DON'T HAVE UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES ESPECIALLY FOR
SMALLER NONPROFITS THAT DON'T
HAVE THOSE BILLION DOLLAR
ENDOWMENTS OR OR DONATIONS-
BECAUSE IT IS SETTING A
PRECEDENT SO THAT'S DEEPLY
CONCERNING TO ME AND- I
UNDERSTAND. YOUR INTENT BUT IT
IS A CONCERN OF MINE. I SEE NO
OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
FROM THE COMMITTEE- MISTER LOWE
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE. ARE
STRICTLY ESCRIBO. I WANT TO
THANK THE AUTHOR FOR BRINGING
THE BILL FORWARD I BELIEVE THAT
BY PROVIDING TRANSPARENCY ON
THE LARGE ENDOWMENTS AT SOME OF
OUR MOST PRESTIGIOUS COLLEGES
AND UNIVERSITIES IN OUR STATE
SHOULD ASSIST THE LEGISLATURE
AND BEING ABLE TO UNDERSTAND.
HOW INDICTMENTS PROVIDE
ASSISTANCE TO OUR NEEDIEST
STUDENTS AND IN IN MANY CASES
THOSE STUDENTS ARE UNDER
REPRESENTED STUDENTS. BUT I
ASKED THE OTHER TO PLEASE
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH MY
COMMITTEE IN ORDER TO ADDRESS
THE CONCERNS AS OUTLINED ON
PAGES THREE AND FOUR OF THE
ANALYSIS. DO I HAVE A MOTION.

FILE I'M THIRTEEN FIRST.
OKAY
ARE YOU PRESENTING- EIGHTY NINE
TWENTY SEVEN. THANK YOU FIVE
FIVE PHONE NUMBER THIRTEEN.
THANK YOU MR CHAIR MEMBERS I'M
PLEASED TO INTRODUCE A. B. NINE
TWENTY SEVEN THE PRACTICAL
SOLUTION TO ELIMINATING THE
SKILLS GAPS AND ENABLING UNDERS
AND REPRESENTED STUDENTS TO
COMPETE IN CALIFORNIA'S CURRENT
AND FUTURE ECONOMY. THE MISSION
OF CALIFORNIA'S COMMUNITY
COLLEGE INCLUDES PROVIDING ITS
STUDENTS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND
BACKGROUND NECESSARY TO COMPETE
IN TODAY'S ECONOMY. COMMUNITY
COLLEGE STUDENTS ACCOUNT FOR
MORE THAN HALF OF THE
UNDERGRADUATE ENROLLMENT IN
CALIFORNIA. HOWEVER THE
EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR
ENTRY LEVEL WORK HAVE
INCREASINGLY INCLUDED
BACCALAUREATE DEGREES. GOVERNOR
JERRY BROWN SOLIDIFIED THE
MISSION BY SIGNING SB EIGHT
FIFTY AUTHORIZING THE BOARD OF
GOVERNORS OF THE CALIFORNIA
COMMUNITY COLLEGE TO ESTABLISH
A STATEWIDE BACCALAUREATE
DEGREE PILOT PROGRAM AT NO MORE
THAN FIFTEEN COLLEGES. THE
CURRENT PROGRAMS IN THE
COMMUNITY COLLEGE BACCALAUREATE
PILOTS ARE PORTABLE AND DIVERSE.
IF CURRENT TRENDS PERSIST 38%
OF THE JOBS WILL REQUIRE AT
LEAST A BACHELOR'S DEGREE BY
TWENTY THIRTY. THE POPULATION
IN EDUCATIONAL TRENDS SUGGEST
THAT ONLY 33% OF WORKING ADULTS
IN CALIFORNIA WE'LL HAVE A
BACHELOR'S DEGREE BY TWENTY
THIRTY. SHORTFALL OF MORE THAN
ONE MILLION COLLEGE GRADUATES.
THERE'S A CLEAR NEED AND DESIRE
FOR MORE DISTRICTS AND STUDENTS
TO PARTICIPATE IN EXPANDED
PILOT PROGRAM. HOWEVER THE
CURRENT RESTRICTIONS ON THE
NUMBER OF COLLEGES THAT OFFER
BACCALAUREUS HAVE LIMITED
EXPANSION. MOREOVER THE PILOT
SUNSETS ON JULY FIRST TWENTY
TWENTY SIX REQUIRING ADDITIONAL
LEGISLATION TO EXTEND THE
PROGRAM. A. B. NINE TWENTY
SEVEN WILL EXTEND THE OPERATION
OF THE STATEWIDE BACCALAUREATE
DEGREE PILOT PROGRAM
INDEFINITELY. MOREOVER THIS
BILL WILL REMOVE THE
REQUIREMENTS THAT THE PROGRAM
CONSIST OF FIFTEEN COMMUNITY
COLLEGE PROGRAMS AND REQUIRE
COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT
SEEKING APPROVAL TO PROVIDE
EVIDENCE OF UNMET WORKFORCE
NEEDS. THIS WILL ALLOW UP TO
THIRTY PROGRAMS A YEAR. FINALLY
A. B. NINE TWENTY SEVEN WILL
MANDATE THAT THE CHANCELLOR THE
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE
COLLEGES CONSULT WITH AND SEEK
FEEDBACK FROM THE CALIFORNIA
STATE UNIVERSITY AND THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA. I
PROPOSE BACCALAUREATE DEGREES
TO AVOID DUPLICATION. FOR
STUDENTS TO COMPETE IN TODAY'S
ECONOMY IT'S ESSENTIAL THAT WE
SEIZE ON THIS UNIQUE
OPPORTUNITY AND EXPAND THE
BACCALAUREATE DEGREE PROGRAM
HERE TO TESTIFY IN SUPPORT IS

DISTRICT. THERE ARE TWO POINTS
THAT I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE.
FOLLOWING A HEARTFELT THANK YOU
TO CHAIRMAN DANA FOR HIS
SUPPORT SITE IN OFFERING THIS
BILL. FIRST THE BILL ADDRESSES
THE FACT THAT MANY EMPLOYERS
AND JOBS THAT USED TO REQUIRE
AN ASSOCIATE DEGREE NOW
PREFERRED THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE
OR REQUIRED THE BACHELOR'S
DEGREE WHICH THE PUBLIC
UNIVERSITIES DO NOT OFFER IN
THESE WORK FORCE FIELD- AND
THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT AND WE
HAVE ENSURED THAT THERE WILL BE
NO DUPLICATION OF PUBLIC
UNIVERSITY PROGRAM. IN THIS
EXPANSION. SECOND THE EXISTING
PILOT PROGRAM HAS BEEN A
RESOUNDING SUCCESS. IT MAKES
SENSE IT'S A PORTABLE ANTENNA
AND LESS THAN ELEVEN THOUSAND
DOLLARS A YEAR. EIGHTY SIX IT
IS ACCEPTABLE- FOUR TO THE
LOCAL COMMUNITIES AND STUDENTS
WHO WOULD SEEK ADVANCEMENT-
IT'S DIVERSE IN ITS SERVICE
POPULATION OVER 60% OF THE
STUDENTS IN THE PILOTS ARE
STUDENTS OF COLOR. 85% THAT JOB
THE AVERAGE SALARY INCREASE IS
THE RESULT OF THE STUDENTS
GRADUATING IN TWENTY FIVE
DOLLARS. AN IMPORTANT FOR
CALIFORNIA NINETY FOUR PERCENT.
OF THE GRADUATES REMAIN IN
CALIFORNIA. THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT BILL FOR CALIFORNIA'S
FUTURE AND WE URGE AND I VOTE
