California Legislature Considers Loss of Spots for College STEM Students

According to a report on KNTV-TV in San Jose, the California state legislature held a hearing on 9 April regarding the loss of approximately 140,000 spots for college students, as well as the related decline in students pursuing STEM education such as engineering degrees.  The committee is looking for ways to streamline avenues for community college transfer students to get math and science courses before going on to four-year universities.  http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/bayColleges-Struggle-to-Meet-Engineer-Demands-146873795.html
