The athletic department is in financial shambles, thanks in large part to the debt service on the football stadium, and they are considering ending the men's soccer and track and field programs so they can convert that stadium into housing. They are a P5 with a large and active donor base and they can't afford to service the $18 million in interest on the $321 million in renovations. This is Cal spending $ in places they should not have. One of the best academic institutions in America because of their high budget allocation to academics...they should have never fixed their stadium if some $ we’re not going to be allocated from academics. Of course there is no way they could have done that without pressure from almost every stakeholder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they build the stadium on the back of student fees they would probably stay free??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Student tickets will stay free. I'm not certain that the student section would get smaller either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
