Robert:
The financial crisis within the CSUC system is real enough. At San Diego 
State, there are plans underway to close entire departments. Apparently, 
there is talk of closing entire campuses.  I hadn't heard which ones so far, 
but knowing the CSUC system as I do (Hayward '74), I would have to believe 
that campus is getting a hard look from the beancounters, along with LA, 
Sonoma, Humboldt. All that, however, is my supposition. 
 
As for who to blame, I wouldn't even attempt to assess that, but I suspect 
there's plenty to go around.
