Tuition Relief Now is a student-led, volunteer driven ballot initiative campaign aiming to freeze undergraduate tuition at all 31 Cal State and University of California campuses.
With fees nearly doubling in the past six years, students are being priced out of higher education!
Join us and sign up to volunteer at www.TUITIONRELIEFNOW.org!
In a nutshell, this law will freeze tuition for 5 years for resident undergraduate students in University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU).

Alumni Connect was a concept turned into grassroots action by ten Long Beach Polytechnic High School Alumni in January of 2006. After experiencing a privileged and rich educational environment at Loyola Marymount University for one semester, I felt the need to extend to my under resourced peers at my alma mater Long Beach Polytechnic High School the fundamental right to an education.
With nine other recent Poly High graduates, I founded Alumni Connect, a youth-run mentoring program. Alumni Connect recently received 501(c)(3) nonprofit status recognition.

The need for an affordable means to obtain required textbooks is clear among university and college students. Expensive textbooks obscure aspirations for the financially struggling college student and add to the already stressful experience of transitioning to the collegiate level. BENAB will be a member-based organization that offers a solution to the problem of pricey textbooks. BENAB will provide a system through which students are given the opportunity to rent the required books needed for their classes.
