UNLAWFUL DISCRIMINATION Your Rights and Remedies - Civil Rights Handbook Back Table of Contents CHAPTER VI Education State Laws The right to a public education in California is a fundamental right fully guaranteed and protected by the California Constitution. Recognizing the central role that education plays in our society, the California Legislature has enacted numerous laws designed to promote equality in educational opportunities and to safeguard students against discriminatory practices in public schools providing educational services. For example, public school teachers are prohibited from giving instruction, and school districts are prohibited from sponsoring any activity which adversely reflects upon persons because of their race, sex, color, creed, handicap, national origin, or ancestry. Instructional material used in public schools must not include matter which is discriminatory on the basis of race, sex, color, creed, handicap, national origin or ancestry. Scholarships, loans and grants must be awarded in a nondiscriminatory manner. Discrimination based upon sex is also prohibited in athletic programs provided by public schools or supported by public funds.

Newspaper Articles See also the related Hot Topic: California Spending Limit Proposals August 2005 LIBRARY Institute of Governmental Studies University of California 109 Moses Hall #2370 Berkeley, CA 94720-2370 510-642-1472 (voice) 510-643-0866 (fax) Introduction With California facing a year-end budget deficit of $6.7 billion in fiscal year 2005-06 lawmakers are trying to find solutions to the state's financial problems. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger unveiled a $111.7-billion state budget in early January that cuts several prominent programs including healthcare and transportation. Arguably, the most controversial cut is the governor's plan to scale back payments owed to the school system by $2.5 billion. Education makes up 40% of the state budget, and is currently protected from cuts by the state Constitution under voter-passed Proposition 98. The education cut has angered school groups who agreed to a funding cut last year in exchange for a promise that there would be no future cut to funding. Those supporting the cut point to the fact that the governor has also proposed a 3.93% cost of living allowance for education in his budget proposal. As a result the schools will be getting slightly more money this year than last. In addition to the cut in the education budget, Schwarzenegger is proposing that teachers should receive pay raises based on merit and not on tenure as is currently the case. California is near the bottom in terms of student achievement according to studies by several prominent think tanks released in January. The merit pay notion has caused an out-cry among education activists who say that merit raises would be disastrous due to the difficulties in putting the program in place and possible discontent amongst teachers.

Reform of Medical Education: Rockefeller Ideals vs. California Realities World War One's distractions prevented implementation of the Moffitt reconsolidation plan, but in 1920 university and medical school officials again turned their full attention to the problem of the split medical school. Their J. D. Rockefeller interest was prompted by rumors that the General Education Board, an organization backed by Rockefeller philanthropy and committed to rebuilding American medical education, wished to endow a third school of public hygiene at Berkeley, on par with those already created and endowed at Johns Hopkins and Harvard. As part of this plan, they indicated that they would financially assist the UC Medical School in upgrading instruction and reconsolidation. The main requirement of the Rockefeller donors, however, was that the UC Medical school be relocated at Berkeley in close proximity to established academic programs in anatomy, bacteriology, immunology, and biochemistry. In 1920, University President David P. Barrows, who was anxious to meet the criteria for this potential multi-million dollar donation, traveled east to speak with the Rockefeller board members in person. In consultation with Abraham Flexner himself

Some therapies such as osteopathy and naturopathy have evolved in the United States over the past two centuries. Still other approaches, such as bioelectro-magnetic applications, are on the frontier of current scientific knowledge and understanding. Nursing Practice: The more complex complementary and alternative therapies become part of advanced education and nursing practice, frequently in the context of continuing education workshops or seminars; examples include acupressure, aromatherapy, massage, yoga, and reflexology. Acupuncture and chiropractic requires a license to practice in California. Applied kinesiology, herbal, homeopathy, and ayurveda, usually require formal education preparation and practice, and in some instances these therapies have private certification.

Ron Unz, a Republican candidate for governor in 1994 and a multimillionaire software developer, who plans to dig deep into his own pockets and spend whatever it takes to get the measure passed. If he succeeds, the results could prove disastrous for California's 1.4 million students with limited English skills. Though confusing and poorly drafted, the Unz initiative will benefit from public misunderstanding of bilingual education Yet Ron Unz is not just another immigrant-basher. To the contrary, he made a name for himself as a conservative opponent of Proposition 187. His Only-English campaign is targeting California's Latino communities, capitalizing on discontent with the public schools and seeking to make bilingual education the scapegoat. Expensive ads promotiong the initiative are appearing in Spanish-language media. Some alleged advocates for immigrant rights, along with a few Asian and Latino politicians, have already signed on.

Explore the System InfoCenter Home Chancellor's Recent Speeches California School Boards Association Delegate Assembly Luncheon - 12/8/99 Good afternoon. Thank you very much for inviting me here today. We at the CSU are looking forward to a new era of cooperation and partnership with the K-12 schools. So I am very pleased to be able to share some time with you today to talk about ideas and plans for the future. Almost exactly one year ago, as some of you may remember, our country lost a great educator John Stanford, Seattle's superintendent of schools. John was a retired general who made a successful transition into education. He is perhaps best remembered for his motto, "Our victory is in the classroom." He was also a person who stood for excellence in education and innovation in leadership. That's why I want to begin by sharing a short story about him: One day, the superintendent joined a training seminar for school administrators. The instructor had created an exercise to demonstrate a point about student achievement. She had set a target on the floor, with lines marked from one foot to 25 feet away. Each person picked a line to stand on and predicted what their success rate would be at tossing four rings onto the target. John Stanford went to the farthest point, predicted he would hit with two rings, and missed each time - by a lot.
