Recommendation To: University, California State
To effectively monitor and ensure that the campuses set self-supported fees in accordance with state law and Executive Order 1054, the Chancellor's Office should immediately take the following action: require campus chief financial officers to develop, and presidents to consider, the statement of revenues and expenditures described in Executive Order 1054 before making a determination on self-supported extended education program fees.
Response
The Chancellor's Office has finalized and issued Executive Order 1102, California State University Student Fee Policy. The policy requires the campus president to consult with the dean of extended education, including consideration of revenue and expenditure plans developed by the dean or designee and in consultation with the campus chief financial officer, prior to making determinations on extended education fees.
