  • @Stephrox09 Ohlone College in Fremont, CA. Student leaders organize a march against cut every year. Check some of my other videos out for coverage of the rally in 2010.

  • @rannix18 you definitely have a point there. California community college is the cheapest. That' s why people depend on it. And that why there is an outcry when the tuition increases. The logic is that, if it was cheap before, when it was well funded, then it should continue to be well funded. A loss of funding is what these students are protesting.

  • funded by the state. Now that we are in an economic crisis, as well as a state budget crisis, funding to public education is being cut. Community colleges used to be free. Now that funding is cut, the students pick up more of the tab. Though the tuition in community college is very cheap compared to that of 4 year schools, it was set up to be affordable. Unfortunately, if you are a college student working a minimum wage job part time to pay for this, a fee increase means you need to drop out.

  • can someone explain to me how community colleges are funded in california?, i'm having a little trouble.

  • California is alot cheaper than most states...

    sure i agree college is expensive( im a full time student and i work) it would be nice to be cheaper come on lets get serious it cant be free...

    and i cant really remember but, was education in the bill of rights?
