Giving Up State Funds

How bad are things in California? The budget cuts and fiscal uncertainty are so severe that the University of California at Los Angeles?s business school is proposing that it give up all state funding — in return for greater budget flexibility and the right to raise out-of-state tuition to the levels of private institutions. The plan has been approved by UCLA, but is awaiting a review by Mark G. Yudof, president of the university system.
