In an effort to cut back on state expenses, the Governor of California is proposing cuts to the CAL Grant program that would eliminate the possiblity of funding for older, non-traditional students. See the San Francisco Chronicle, Valued CAL Grants Could Fall to Budget Ax - online now.

bad idea. I think when we lower our educational standards to help balance a budget it is sending a very bad message

And the old saying is, at least relative to higher education, as California goes, so goes the rest of the country.
I hate to think what kind of fall out we'll see if the rest of the states take this kind of stance on funding programs for higher education.

He wants to cut my salary back to min wage. I am an IHSS worker for the state of CA. We just got direct deposit after waiting about a year or more for it to take place.
