As California continues to head downward in an economic freefall, it is time to "Rescue Education." Students, faculty and staff of the state's community colleges, state colleges and universities will rally at the State Capitol March 16 to express their support for higher education in California.
"The time has come where we must ask ourselves and our legislators whether our budget reflects our goals as a state," says the groups, iwillmarch.com website. "Even with the passage of the 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 budget package, we, the students of California's public higher education system, realize that this crisis is far from over and that very real threats are not far ahead. So, join us at Raley Field to begin a march to the State Capitol in Sacramento to express support for California's public higher education system."
