BILL NUMBER:  AB 2732
  VETOED	DATE: 09/26/2016




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 2732 without my signature.

This bill would require the California State University Trustees to
provide educational and preventative information about cyberbullying
to students, as part of campus orientations, and request the Regents
of the University of California to do the same.
¦
There is little doubt that the proliferation of technology has
generated new concerns and new forms of bullying and harassment.
State law, however, already requires governing boards of public
postsecondary institutions to adopt and publish policies on
harassment and bullying.
¦
It is common sense for institutions to include the most current and
relevant issues in these policies and educate students during
orientation. I believe that cyberbullying and other pertinent issues
can be adequately covered without an additional specification in law.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
