6 2005-2006 California State University, Fresno General Catalog
The individual California State Colleges
were brought together as a system by the
Donahoe Higher Education Act of 1960.
In 1972, the system became the Califor-nia
State University and Colleges. Ten
years later, the system became the
California State University.
The oldest campus — San Jose State
University — was founded as a Normal
School in 1857 and became the first
institution of public higher education in
California. The newest — California
State University, Channel Islands —
opened in fall 2002, with freshmen
arriving in fall 2003.
Responsibility for the California State
University is vested in the Board of
Trustees, consisting of ex officio mem-bers,
alumni and faculty representatives,
and members appointed by the Gover-nor.
The Trustees appoint the Chancel-lor,
who is the chief executive officer of
the system, and the Presidents, who are
the chief executive officers of the
respective campuses.
The Trustees, the Chancellor, and the
Presidents develop systemwide policy,
with implementation at the campus level
taking place through broadly based
consultative procedures. The Academic
Senate of the California State University,
made up of elected representatives of the
faculty from each campus, recommends
academic policy to the Board of Trustees
through the Chancellor.
Academic excellence has been achieved
by the California State University
through a distinguished faculty whose
primary responsibility is superior
teaching. While each campus in the
system has its own unique geographic
and curricular character, all campuses, as
multipurpose institutions, offer under-graduate
and graduate instruction for
professional and occupational goals as
well as broad liberal education. All the
campuses require for graduation a basic
program of General Education require-ments,
regardless of the type of
bachelor’s degree or major field selected
by the student.
The CSU offers more than 1,800
bachelor’s and master’s degree programs
in some 240 subject areas. Many of these
programs are offered so that students can
complete all upper-division and graduate
requirements by part-time, late afternoon
and evening study, or by distance
learning from home or work via com-puter
or television. In addition, a variety
of teaching and school service credential
programs are available. A number of
doctoral degrees are offered jointly with
the University of California and with
private institutions in California.
In fall 2003, the system enrolled 409,000
students, taught by some 22,000 faculty.
Last year the system awarded more than
half of the bachelor’s degrees and 30
percent of the master’s degrees granted in
California. Nearly two million persons
have been graduated from the CSU
campuses since 1960.
