SB 912

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law establishes the 3 segments of public postsecondary education in this state. These segments include the California State University, which is administered by the Trustees of the California State University, the University of California, which is administered by the Regents of the University of California, and the California Community Colleges, which are administered by the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. Existing law expresses the intent of the Legislature that the regents, the trustees, and the board of governors have as a fundamental policy the maintenance of an effective student transfer system. Existing law expresses the intent of the Legislature that the 3 segments pursue the development of transfer agreement programs that specify the curricular requirements that must be met, and the level of achievement that must be attained, by community college students in order for those students to transfer to the campus, undergraduate college, or major of choice in the public 4-year segments. This bill would express the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation to incorporate the recommendations of the Community College Transfer Task Force for improving the transfer process between the segments of public postsecondary education.
