Measure C Litigation: FHDA Prevailed

March 28, 2008 Dear Faculty and Staff, Measure C litigation is over and we can move on The California Supreme Court ruled in our favor on the Measure C litigation that's been going on for the past 19 months! By now, you've probably read the details Becky Bartindale sent to all faculty and staff. What a joy for us all! What a relief! We can now move forward over the next few years to finish what we began when our residents passed Measure E in 1999. This time, though, with Measure C, we'll have funding for instructional equipment and technology as well as renovations and some new facilities. With these new resources, our goal is to create and sustain an unparalleled learning environment that will be a perpetual magnet to bring students, faculty, staff and the community into our world of teaching and learning!
