Despite budget cuts, staff and faculty furloughs, and enrollment reductions, Cal State University San Marcos (CSUSM) has remained productive under the leadership of President Karen Haynes.
“Although we were happy to see the state reinvest in the California State University system for 2010-11, state support is at the same level it was five years ago,” Haynes said.
Yet CSUSM is serving more students. State appropriations are only 59 percent of the university’s total budget, said Haynes, whose tenure as CSUSM’s third president began in 2004.
