$1.85M in Federal Funding Heading to CSULB


Cal State Long Beach will provide its students with additional classes and course sections for the upcoming spring semester.
This comes as good news after the many reports have informed students of class selections being tougher as the budget crisis continues. The Press-Telegram reports that the funding will spare many classes and keep CSULB from eliminating some temporary staff positions.
The university did not enroll any new students for the spring semester and will continue to do that as a way to save money. The federal funding did not allocate money for this issue. It was also reported that for the next academic year, furloughs will most likely not be repeated which would mean that CSULB could face a $30 million budget hole. It would have to take a lot more federal funding to aid the university for the upcoming semesters.
