I. . Sample Syllabi Statement
"I am committed to your academic success. However, due to the extreme budget cuts, all 23 CSU campuses have cut admissions, classes, and faculty positions. Class sessions will be canceled on certain days this semester because of budget cuts.
A canceled class does not mean you get an extra vacation--it means that CSULB does not have enough money in its budget to offer the services we believe we should offer to give you a high-quality education. You still need to know the material for exams, but you’ll have less explanation and class time with your professor. Faculty may not be available during office hours. Department offices will be closed on a regular basis. The library will have shorter hours and many campus support services are decreased. If you need signatures to meet deadlines, but there’s nobody to sign or the department office is closed, you will be stuck. You’ve probably already noticed that many classes you need are cut from the schedule. This means it may take you longer to graduate.
The days when I am forced to cancel class because of budget cuts are marked on your syllabus.
Log on to http://savethecsu.com for more information and Facebook links. We need to take collective action so CSULB can continue to offer high-quality education. Please join the fight to save education in the state of California--everyone's future in the state depends on it!"
