May 2005 | Listen Up: Californians Respond to the College-Access Crisis

Read the Full Report

Download the Executive Summary

The Campaign visited every major region in the state to document what Californians had to say about the challenges facing higher education with ever-increasing demand yet shrinking budgets, and their ideas for solutions. The Listening Tour took us from the classroom to the boardroom and many places in between. There was resounding agreement in every region and from all sectors that the state must develop a plan to ensure college opportunity for this growing young population. This report chronicles what we learned on the Listening Tour and includes new regional enrollment forecasts, real-life student stories, and recommendations for solutions.
