California State University: extension programs, special session, and self-supporting instructional programs: revenues.

Existing law establishes the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in the state. Existing law authorizes the Trustees of the California State University to transmit any revenues, including fees and charges required by the trustees, received by the trustees from extension programs, special session, and other self-supporting instructional programs to the Treasurer and if transmitted, requires the revenues to be deposited in the State University Continuing Education Revenue Fund, a continuously appropriated fund. Existing law appropriates all revenues from that fund to the trustees for the support and development of self-supporting instructional programs of the California State University. The bill would instead appropriate all revenues from the State University Continuing Education Revenue Fund to the trustees for the support and development of instructional programs of the California State University. By expanding the scope of an existing appropriation, the bill would make an appropriation. Existing law requires the chief fiscal officer of each campus of the California State University to deposit and maintain in specified trust accounts, or in the continuously appropriated California State University Trust Fund, specified moneys received in connection with certain sources or purposes, including fees for extension programs, special sessions, and other self-supporting instructional programs. This bill would authorize the trustees to transmit the revenues received by the trustees from extension programs, special session, or self-supporting instructional programs to the chief fiscal officer of a university campus, and would require those transmitted moneys to be deposited in specified trust accounts or in the continuously appropriated California State University Trust Fund. By adding a potential source of revenue to a continuously appropriated fund, the bill would make an appropriation. The bill would require, on or before March 31 of each year, the California State University to submit a report to the Department of Finance and the appropriate fiscal and policy committees of the Legislature on the revenue generated from extension programs, special session, or self-supporting instructional programs, as specified.
