The California State University
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 and in 1982 the system
became The California State
University. Today, 16 of the 19
campuses have the title
"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 campusCalifornia
State College,
Bakersfield-began instruction in 1970.
Responsibility for The California State
University is vested in the Board of
Trustees, whose members are appointed
by the Governor. The Trustees appoint
the Chancellor, who is the chief executive
officer of the system, and the Presidents,
who are the chief executive officers on
the respective .campuses.
The Trustees, the Chancellor, and the
Presidents develop systemwide polley,
with actual implementation at the campus
ievel 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 Chanceilor.
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 undergraduate and
graduate instruction for professional and
occupational goals as well as broad
liberal education. All of the campuses
require for graduation a basic program of
"General Education·Breadth Require·
ments" regardless of the type of
bachelor's degree or major field selected
by the student.

The CSU offers more than 1,500
bachelor's and master's degree
programs in some 200 subject areas.
Nearly 500 of these programs are offered
so that students can complete all
upper-division and graduate requirements
by part·time late afternoon and evening
study. 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.
The Consortium of the CSU draws on the
resources of the 19 campuses to ofter
regional and statewide off-campus
degree, certificate, and credential
programs to individuals who find it
difficult or impossible to attend classes
on a campus. In addition to Consortium
programs, individual campuses also offer
external degree programs.
Enrollments in fall 1983 totaled over
315,000 students, who were taught by a
faculty of 18,500. Last year the sysfem
awarded over 50 percent of the
bachelor's degrees and 30 percent of the
master's degrees granted in California.
More than 900,000 persons have been
graduated from the 19 campuses since
1960.
