RE: Question 1: School to work

I'm beginning to think that the state should better balance the funding allocated to community colleges (particularly for vocational education) versus the UC system. More Californians directly benefit from the community college system, but the spending per student is substantially lower in the community college system.

The History section of the Working Group report states "Industry by industry, California's college-educated workforce comes from the national market, but high school graduates and below enter the state's workforce from the statewide population." I would amend that to read "...the international market..." California attracts college-educated people from around the world, but are we providing the right mix of semi-skilled job training for Californians?
