Forgotten?

The Legislative Analyst's Office has come out with its comments on the governor's May Revise budget.* A lot of the report involves a different arrangement of the basic figures rather than a fundamental disagreement. There is, as might be expected, some discussion of the governor's proposal as it interacts with Prop 98 that sets funding for K-14 by formula.

Other lines of the budget are also discussed. But there is nothing about higher ed or the UC budget. Does this mean LAO is happy with the governor's proposal as it affects UC? Does LAO even have the full facts with which to agree or disagree? As we have noted, what is on the Dept. of Finance website doesn't seem to accord with what the Regents were given.

Maybe it just means that given the larger fiscal turmoil, we are basically forgotten.
