CSU
Spartans Fight for Freedom of Choice; We Need Your Help - CSU
Spartans have recently been lobbying University and CSU officials
for restoration of freedom of choice in San Jose. Students
and graduates at schools like Fresno and Long Beach can freely
choose to market themselves under those school's state or
city identities, but in San Jose you are stuck with the obscure,
non-sensical "SJSU" city college identity whether you
like it or not. Support our campaign to achieve a CSU "alternate
identity" similar to "Fresno State/CSU Fresno" under which
the "San Jose State" name would be retained, but the University
would also publicly recognize that it is the oldest California
State University. This would give San Jose students
and grads the freedom of choice to market themselves
as CSU students/grads if they wish.
To make this happen we need your help lobbying student
government, University, & CSU officials, writing letters, etc. To
support this effort, please join the CSU Spartans Yahoo group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CSU_Spartans
and/or email alumni@gostate.org
