RESOLVED: That the Academic Senate CSU thank the campuses for their invaluable advice during the preparation of this report.

RATIONALE: During the 2000-2001 academic year, the Academic Affairs committee of the Academic Senate CSU prepared the initial draft of the attached report. Campuses were asked for their advice at several steps of the drafting process, and they responded with many valuable suggestions. During Spring 2001, an ad hoc drafting committee revised and refined the draft in the light of advice from campuses. The purpose of the report is to present the concerns of the Academic Senate CSU to policy-making bodies, the Board of Trustees and the legislature, who are responsible for policy-making and budget-making for the CSU.
