While their counterparts at the University of California were staging a walk-out, faculty and students at Cal State Los Angeles held a demonstration on Thursday, September 24th to raise awareness about a $750 million cut from the state this year. The budget cut triggered proposals for a 31-percent fee hike and reduced classes. The protesters were joined by Assemblyman Anthony Portantino and Democratic Council Secretary Reggie Byron Jones-Sawyer. Listen to ARN’s Lauren Whaley’s story from the protest.
