Listen to What the Governor Said About the Higher Ed Budget

In an earlier post, we described the elements of the state budget for 2013-14 proposed by the governor and noted that his remarks at the news conference where the budget was presented largely mirrored prior statements he made at the Regents.

Below is a link to an audio of his remarks on higher education (UC and CSU).  Although most of the time at the news conference was devoted to other aspects of the budget, higher education came up several times including once at the portion of the event with Budget Director Ana Matosantos.

You can hear his remarks - and hers - at the link below:

UPDATE: UC is now saying tuition won't go up next year:
