Higher education has also fallen victim to the perverted political agenda of the right wing. The obsessive cutting of taxes both on the state and federal level has seriously diminished public financing of higher education. In the same speech in which University of California Chancellor Berdahl acknowledged the importance of the GI Bill, he associated the defunding of higher education with the phenomena of rising tuition, “State support for Berkeley’s operating budget has fallen from over 60 percent in 1980 to 34 percent at the present time. In the process of privatization of public universities, the largest single group of private contributors is the students, who now contribute about 15 percent of the operating budget of the University” (Berdahl 2000).
