Governor Jerry Brown's effort to revive California's higher education UC and Cal State systems as gateways to the middle class
03/11/2009
As part of this effort Brown makes half of the aid to universities contingent on a tution freeze, pushes for lower executive pay, more online courses, and faculty teaching more undergraduate classes. Under his father Governor Edmund Brown, the state's higher education system functioned in the 1960's and subsequent decades as a gateway to the U.S. middle class, and a beacon for other American states.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
