SB919 - Fairness In Tax/Fee Revenue

Whereas student fees may be construed as an education tax on students who often are economically disadvantaged, and

Whereas it could be considered to be unfair to burden students with fees in an environment where income tax rates are being reduced, and

Whereas SB 919 requires that for every percentage reduction in income tax rates, an equal percentage reduction in California Community College student fees would occur,

Resolved that the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges support the concepts in SB 919 as they exist on April 2, 1995. M/S/C Disposition: Board of Governors, COFO, Chancellor's Office, Executive Committee, FACCC, Governor, Legislature, CalSACC
