California Bond Measure Allocates Student Housing Funds to UC and CSU
What happened
The California State Legislature placed a $11.25 billion bond measure on the November ballot to fund affordable housing. About $350 million from this bond is designated for student housing construction, with the funds being split evenly between the University of California and California State University. The measure would fund up to 1,200 student housing beds.

Why it matters
The bond measure aims to provide subsidies for up to 40,000 new affordable homes for various groups, including UC students. The allocation of $350 million for student housing could help drive down housing costs for students across both university systems.
Gavin Newsom is governing California higher education, addressing issues such as degree duplication and protest rights through new legislation.
