Preliminary Announcement: Nov. 7 Forum on Future Funding of UC

On Wednesday, November 7, the Faculty Association at UCLA is sponsoring a noontime program on the Future Funding of UC. That's the day after Election Day and, unless the results are very close, we will at least know the outcome of the various state propositions on the ballot dealing with taxes.  The program will be at the Faculty Center.

Prof. Steve Lippman of Anderson will introduce the event.  Prof. Karen Orren of Poli Sci will be the emcee.  Speakers will be Prof. Chris Newfield of UC-SB (English), Prof. Robert Anderson of UC-Berkeley (Economics and past chair of the Academic Council), and yours truly, Prof. Dan Mitchell of the Anderson and Luskin schools.  The discussant will be Steve Boilard from the Legislative Analyst's Office, an LAO expert on public higher ed budgetary issues.

More details and any changes in the program will appear on this blog as we get closer to Nov. 7.
