As most of you are aware, the UC is facing a myriad of budgetary challenges that have resulted in the
reduction of the quality and accessibility of your education. Through the University of California Student Association, you have the opportunity, as a student, to take a larger role in the decisions being made at the UC Office of the President by serving as a student representative on several critically important committees. Student representation is extremely necessary, especially now that we contribute more to fund our education in fees than the state does in funding.
