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
California 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. California State University,
Monterey Bay, became the CSU’s 21st
campus in September 1994. The
California Maritime Academy in Vallejo,
founded in 1929, joined the CSU as its
22nd campus in July 1995. The CSU’s
23rd campus — California State
University, Channel Islands — serves
students in the Ventura County region.
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 actual 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 1,600
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 limited number
of doctoral degrees are offered jointly
with the University of California and
with private institutions in California.
In fall 1998, the system enrolled 350,254
students, taught by more than 19,500
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. More than 1.84
million persons have been graduated
from the CSU campuses since 1960.
