This is an interesting observation, as the Cal States are more focused on instruction than UC, which I think helps justify their (and the CCs) better state funding. UC looks like its flush from all the federal research dollars it pulls in, and from running the hospitals, so the Assembly feels it's easier to cut there, than at CalState/CCs, where they don't have the research or hospital money.
