California takes lead in helping students get to college — and stay there

Bright murals decorate the walls of UC Berkeley’s Basic Needs Center, framing the entrance to a food pantry laden with organic mac and cheese, fresh produce and bread from the nearby Acme Bakery.

Gavin Newsom.

Not everyone should go to college, we need Plummer’s Electrican’s Carpenters

Wow, cheap books.

California? I doubt it!

Are all the students that get help colored? Because I have white friends and not white friends and just based on color the non writes get more scholarships 🤔🤔🤔 Fact, not racism. But that's in NV.... 🤔 CA may be different... Or not...

What’s it going to cost us?

LeslieMarshall Cutting the cost of education is not an intractable issue.

Yes, graduate. Get better jobs. Make more money. Become Republicans.

We also let homeless people poop in the streets because we’re the best state ever.

California isn’t leading anything but homelessness and illegal immigration.... also taxing their residents into the Stone Age.

Meanwhile.... homeless problem due to high rents. I was going to move back to Los Angeles next year but I saw that rents are too high... and some places aren't even renting full apartments... they're renting beds and splitting up 2-3 bedroom apartments.
