CSU, and the Chancellor of the CCC, pursuant to specified
federal law requirements to obtain quarterly wage data,
commencing July 1, 2010, on students who have attended their
respective systems to assess the impact of education on the
employment and earnings of those students, to conduct the
annual analysis of district-level and individual district or
postsecondary education system performance in achieving
priority educational outcomes, and to submit the required
reports to the Legislature and the Governor.

ARGUMENTS IN SUPPORT : According to the author's office,
policy makers should ensure that students are armed with
accurate data and information about the labor market. Giving
students a picture of college graduate salary earnings and
industry placement will allow students to make thoughtful,
data-driven decisions about where and what they want to study.
The intent of this bill is to provide information similar to
that provided by the CCC through their Salary Surfer.
