Sponsored bills
Under existing law, the 3 segments of public postsecondary education in this state are the University of California, under the administration of the Regents of the University of California, the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, and the California Community Colleges, under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. Existing law, known as the Donahoe Higher Education Act, establishes the missions and functions of these segments. The provisions of the Donahoe Higher Education Act apply to the University of California only to the extent that the Regents of the University of California, by resolution, make them applicable. This bill would require the trustees and the governing board of participating community college districts, and would encourage the regents, to designate as a "hunger free campus" each of its respective campuses that meet specified criteria. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, the bill would, commencing with the 2018–19 academic year, provide that each campus that receives the designation shall receive a funding incentive. The bill would repeal its provisions on January 1, 2022.
