Reagan's State of the State Plea for Energy Cuts
Reagan urged Californians to cut personal energy use by 10 percent and pressed for nonpartisan election oversight, proposing a constitutional amendment to make the secretary of state’s office nonpartisan. He called for energy conservation, a deeper water port for supertankers, and faster siting of nuclear plants while warning against tax increases. He sought to limit government delays, support industry and agriculture, and proposed an Academy for Educational Management.

Campus cost estimates close on three site options

Utilities and landscaping costs show a narrow spread between Willits and the other sites, with alternate calculations suggesting Redwood Valley and York Ranch may reduce total costs. Administrators warn that site proximity to student concentrations strongly affects ADA funding and operating expenses, stressing the need to choose a location serving both day and extended enrollments.
