CALIFORNIA STATEWIDE STUDENT WALKOUTS

WEDNESDAY MAY 12, 2004

California State Governor Schwarzenegger will be releasing another
revision of the state budget on Thursday May 13, 2004. Students across the state are joining as a unified voice on Wednesday May 12, 2004 to oppose any further cuts to education in K-12 thru higher education. The California State University system is facing
cuts that eliminate any outreach to lower income communities and the elimination of many undergraduate programs.

SAN FRANCISCO STATE UNIVERSITY

Walk out time is 10AM and will congregate in the main quad and
proceed to march throughout the campus causing a shut down of the entire University. The general student body at San Francisco State University walked out of a town hall meeting on Thursday, April 29, 2004 and initiated a statewide call for all California State Universities, UC campuses and community colleges to collectively walk out of their classes on May 12, 2004. This date was chosen to show the state politicians that students cannot accept any further proposed cuts to education in the state budget May revision to be released on May 13.
