2007 Legislative Session Comes to an End—College Students Big Winners!
Congratulations Students!
At 1:15pm on June 28th on the Capitol steps, Governor Kulongoski signed the community college and universities operational budgets into law. Students attended the event, celebrating their success in helping to bring postsecondary education from low on the state’s list to a top priority this session, with the largest reinvestment in a decade.
In addition to increased funding for colleges and universities, the 2007 legislative session brought many victories for students, including historical commitments to college affordability. Read more in our press release.
OSA Rally for Funding a Success!
At what was the largest rally for postsecondary education in Oregon since 1999, over 500 hundred students, administrators, faculty, and staff from colleges and universities across the state joined on the Capitol steps in a collective call for reinvestment in postsecondary education on February 22nd. Legislators who were unable to be in attendance reported hearing the spirited rally calls—and even feeling their rumble—from inside the building! To read more about the rally, read our Internet Digest or see what the media had to say on our Press page. Photos will be available soon.
The same day, over 60 students also met with 62 of their legislators to share their stories about how access to a quality college education affects their lives. At the meetings, students delivered over 15,000 recipe cards to their legislators with the “ingredients” for a stronger Oregon that were signed by college students from across the state. These ingredients are students’ 2007 priority legislative issues.
