Waves of New Applicants

Hard to hold back the tide of applicants.  King Canute or Jerry Brown?
Despite the ongoing tuition/state funding debate between the Regents and the governor, more applications for UC are coming.  Note also that the CSU threat - which hasn't gotten quite the news media attention that the UC tuition proposal has - to cut enrollment directly confronts those students applying for admission and their parents.  The tide of applicants seems not to be discouraged by tuition talk.  If the governor and legislature take actions that freeze UC tuition without more state funding and enrollment cuts occur, they will be blamed.
