This is the one I worked to damn hard to get passed, and the one that pissed Drinnon off so much.  We never did anything with it.

Whereas, The 1960 Master Plan for Higher Education in California embodies the principle that open access to higher education is fundamental to the interests of the state by providing for an educated populace and a strong, developing workforce;

Whereas, The 1960 Master Plan for Higher Education in California differentiates the roles of the California Community College, State University and the University of California Systems in implementing that plan; and

Whereas, Recent and ongoing legislation is eroding the ability of each educational system component to fulfill its assigned role in executing the Master Plan;

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges initiate a conversation with all relevant stakeholders to reconfirm or revise the 1960 Master Plan for Higher Education in California and the mission of the California community colleges as appropriate.
