History The California State University System, formally established in 1960 by the Donahoe Higher Education Act. It is the nation's largest university system, with 23 campuses and seven off-campus centers, more than 400,000 students and 42,000 faculty and staff. The CSU is one of three public higher education systems in the state of California (the others are the University of California and the California Community College System). Since 1961 more than 2 million alumni have received a bachelor's, master's, and doctoral (Ph.D. and Ed.D) degrees from the university system. It offers more than 1,800 degree programs in some 240-subject areas. Today's California State University system is the direct descendant of the California State Normal School (now, San Jose State University) established by the California Legislature on May 2, 1862. By 1895 there were four State Normal schools. In 1921, the schools were re-named the State Teacher's Schools. In 1935 the colleges were re-named the California State Colleges and were run by the State Department of Education. With the master plan created along with the Donohue Act, the California State Colleges were placed under control of the CSC Board of Trustees. In 1972 the system was renamed the California State Colleges and Universities. The term "Colleges" was dropped in 1982. Responsibility for the California State University is vested in the Board of Trustees, whose members are appointed by the Governor of the State of California. The Trustees appoint the Chancellor, who is the chief executive officer of the system, and the Presidents, who are the chief executive officers of their respective campuses. The Academic Senate of the California State University, made up of elected representatives of the faculty from each campus, recommends academic 2 policy to the Board of Trustees through the Chancellor. Chancellors of the system include Buell Gallagher (1961-1962); Glenn S. Dumke (1962-1982); W. Ann Reynolds (1982-1990); Ellis E. McCune [Acting] (1990-1991); Barry Munitz (1991-1998); Charles B.

The first paper is a brief social history of its early development. An orientation luncheon for new members of the Senate on September 11, 1987, provided Professor Peter H. Shattuck an opportunity to help prepare those Senators for their new roles. Shattuck approached this occasion as an historian (at CSU Sacramento since 1965), as a former Chair of the Faculty Senate at that campus, and as a member of the Executive Committee of the Academic Senate CSU. Following Professor Shattuck’s speech are the remarks of seven former Chairs of the statewide Academic Senate at a January 9, 1986, Senate symposium commemorating the 25th anniversary of the California State University.

    International Journal of Education and Social Science Research ISSN 2581-5148 Vol. 1, No. 06; 2018 STRATIFICATION BETWEEN CLASSROOMS: AN ANALYSIS OF RESEARCH COMPETITIONS IN CALIFORNIA HIGHER EDUCATION David Ortuno California State University San Marcos ABSTRACT The economic potential of postpositivist knowledge, as related to higher education research, disempowers both non-positivist professors and their students. Biased favoritism is evident among postpositivist and non-positivist students competing in symposiums, which leads to stratification and gender inequality among the professoriate as a communal body of knowledge (Subramaniam,Perrucci, & Whitlock,2014).These cultural phenomena have been further exacerbated by decreased federal and state funding for higher education (Lambert, 2014; Ortuno, 2018). To increase institutional funding and prestige, senior-level staff and symposium judges encourage post positivist research, as it has the potential to harness the greatest capital and prestige for the institution; regardless of subpar graduation rates produced by the institution (Lambert, 2014; Ortuno, 2018). Stratification in and among classrooms is evident in numerous forms; for example: (1)decreased tenured faculty positions, which are replaced with lecturers who teach larger classrooms and online classes, receive significantly less pay and benefits, and in some cases, are prohibited from engaging in student research; (2) increased tuition fees and student enrollment; regardless of subpar postpositivist retention and graduation rates

Ananth and Priscilla Leiva* or many college campuses in the United States, 2017 was a tumultuous year. A series of aggressive executive orders, includ- ing the rescinding of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals F(DACA) program and the institution of a variety of so-called Muslim bans, dramatically affected students in the California State University (CSU) system. In Los Angeles, a Cal State LA student was picked up outside her home and spent over a month in immigration detention before being among the lucky to be released; in Hayward, 23 Cal State East Bay students were prevented from visiting countries covered in various versions of the Muslim ban. Amid widespread panic, the authors—current and former faculty at Cal State LA—received an email from the university’s president, William Covino, designating the Department of Public Safety as the “li- aison between the campus community and state immigration authorities.” Such efforts highlighted the unknown commitments of the campus police * Akhila L.

Gerth President and Professor of Public Policy and Administration, Emeritus California State University Sacramento Commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Academic Senate of the California State University And Envisioning It’s Future I want to thank you for inviting me to participate in this celebration of 50 years of work, the work of the faculty, and the work of the Academic Senate of the California State University. I was educated to become a conventional faculty member, but I went wrong early along the way. It was 55 years ago this past January at the University of Chicago that I met the very new president of San Francisco State College, Glenn Dumke; he was on a faculty recruitment trip across the country, as was the custom of presidents in those years. We had an interesting and even exciting discussion about the then rapidly changing California State Colleges (there were nine campuses in 1958). I had just completed the course work for the PhD, and Bev and I were exploring research for a dissertation about Indian politics – Bev was entering data on a huge computer in the basement of a building at the University of Chicago, but it was only after midnight when graduate students could get access to the equipment. Perhaps two weeks after Glenn and I first met on campus, President Dumke phoned; he had with him on the phone line a dean, Ferd Reddell; together they offered me a position in this extraordinary adventure as I saw it, the California State Colleges.

This publicity, which included descriptive accounts, rail­ road propaganda, newspaper and magazine material and advertisements! was largely responsible for the city's phenomenal growth. This thesis is a study of the promotional practices used during Los Angeles' formative years, and deals with the psychological and sociological aspects of the booster literature of that era; The self-interests of the railroads, the real estate specula­ tors, the oil, citrus, manufacturing and other enthusiasts provided the impetus for what became the most intensive public relations effort the country had yet experienced, and which produced unprecedented results.

Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Albert H.

    California State University, Stanislaus: A History California State University, Stanislaus: A History Robert LeRoy Santos Reference Librarian & University Archivist California State University, Stanislaus [email protected] Introduction History can be written in various styles. An unbroken narrative is one. Another is the segmental approach where history is written by standardized topics. The latter method was chosen for this history allowing the reader to see the evolution of the university by topic while still being able to read its history each year if so desired. The standardized topics are: (1) Chronology (2) Campus Development, Planning, and Physical Plant (3) Administration and Support Staff (4) Student Body (5) Faculty (6) Curriculum (7) Enrollment (8) Academic Support (9) Sports (10) Major Events and Issues. The sources employed to write this history are all found in the University Archives. They include: the Campus Digest, official press releases, local newspaper clippings, faculty minutes, Academic Council minutes, President's Cabinet minutes, college catalogs, the Signal, the Legend yearbook, and other pertinent documents.

"DRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS *Activism; Case Studies; *College Students; *Higher Education; *School Boycotts; Strikes; Student AttAtudes; *Student College Relationship IDENTIFIERS *San Francisco State College ABSTRACT This document reviews the activities at San Francisco State College, October 1968-April, 1969: why the San Francisco State College strike became the first sustained assault on an institution by its students, embroiling, as it did, not only the faculty, administrators, trustees, students, and alumni, but also the political leaders of the city and the State, and the off-campus community. The first part of the report describes the Califcrnia system of higher education and San Francisco State College, the conditions prior to the strike, and the strike. Because the student strike leadership was centered in the Black Student Union, the second part of the report deals with the black community and some of the reasons underlying the actions of the black student strike leaders. This is followed by a brief comment on the outlook for the future and appendices containing a list of the demands, a comment on th.! police, a list of the trustees of the California State colleges, and a summary of the proposed Black Studies Program.

    GUIDE TO THE COLLECTIONS OF THE ARCHIVES AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS AT CSU DOMINGUEZ HILLS AND THE CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM ARCHIVES Archives Reading Room Compiled by Gregory L Williams Thomas Philo University Library, California State University Dominguez Hills @2012 University Library, California State University Dominguez Hills All photographs are from the Collections of the Archives and Special Collections Department, University Library, California State University Dominguez Hills. Cover photo: Archives and Special Collections Reading Room, CSUDH. 1933 Earthquake, Compton. Compton History Collection. The Collections at CSU Dominguez Hills The purpose of this Guide is to introduce or re-introduce the collections of the Archives and Special Collections at California State University Dominguez Hills to the students, faculty, the community and others who might have an interest in researching at CSUDH. The collections at CSUDH are part of a medium-sized Archive that is able (because of that size) to make its collections accessible for CSUDH students and the community in a quick and friendly manner. The collections the Archives holds are intentionally diverse and serve our students because we have the many kinds of materials---rare books, maps, letters, business records, photographs, manuscripts, reports, postcards, newspapers and films. While a good deal of this material is accessible on various websites, the collections listed in this Guide are usually not immediately accessible because some are yet to be completely cataloged. While the cataloging backlog at CSUDH is significantly smaller than other repositories, there can be a lag between the time collections are donated and when they are accessible in finding aids. The web version of this Guide will be updated whenever new collections are brought into the archives and it will serve as another access point for our collections…and it is hoped a resource for extensive future research.
