<p>I should start by saying i love UCSC but i'm worried that the budget cuts will affect the quality of education that the UCs are known for. can any students comment on this please.</p>
<p>I am so worried about this too!
My teachers scare me, they tell us to go OOS or to privates and warn us that UCs are in trouble, but I really don’t know exactly what is affected.</p>
<p>Budget cuts are affecting all of us state wide. It is not just a problem with UCSC or the UCs.</p>
<p>The budget cuts have been impacting us for years, but here at UCSC, we were able to keep the cuts from really affecting the students, and most of the faculty and staff felt the effects of the cuts instead.</p>
<p>This year was the first time that the cuts were really felt by the student body (reducing the amount of TAs or professors in impacted majors, reduced dining hall and library hours, etc.) but UCSC staff is still doing everything in their power to keep the impacts away from students.</p>
