Two Essays

This is an excerpt from the paper...

Many states are facing budget deficits and increasing demands on public resources. California leads with way with a budget deficit that registered at $34.8 billion as of January 2003 (Alemozafar 2003). California Governor Gray DavisÆ proposals to remedy the situation include a planned $10.2 billion cut in education funding for 2003 and 2004, with $350 million being diverted from public colleges and universities in 2003 alone (Alemozafar 2003). These cuts are in addition to cuts that were enacted in 2002. The University of California system already lost $184 in funding for fiscal 2002 and faces another $74 million in cuts under the new proposal (Alemozafar 2003). Such reductions in funding represent a number of significant challenges for higher education in California.

One challenge of these cuts pertains to maintaining quality of education. Such cuts in already strapped university systems will make retaining quality instructors more challenging. So too, they will make it more difficult to provide students and instructors with the resources necessary to provide a quality education, such as state-of-the-art technologies and professional guest speakers. To this end Governor DavisÆ proposal did ôprotect instructional programsö according to UC system spokesperson Brad Hayward, but many express concern that DavisÆ recent cut is only the start of a ôseveral-year decline in resources for California educationö (Alemozafar 2003, 1-2).

ll and Dagger 2001). Humans enter a social contract when they join society. In so doing they give up their absolute freedom in nature and consent to be governed. While they lose some measure of freedom, Hobbes argues they gain much more in the protection and order of civilized society that curbs the rampant self-interest in the natural state. Nevertheless, Hobbes maintains that the governing part of the contract is obligated to rule in the best interests of the governed. HobbesÆ state of nature theory is similar to LockeÆs but Locke expands on the concept of the rule of reason. He believes that it was logical for a group of governed individuals to revolt against a leader who was unjust. Locke greatly defended reason as a means of preventing the will of an unjust ruler from being imposed on individuals. His strong support of the capabilities of manÆs reason led to a conservative reaction in the person of Edmund Burke who felt Locke put too much stock in the ability of human reason left to its own devices. He maintained that strict social controls were needed in order to protect the state from any threat that would challenge the social order (Ball and Dagger 2001). Any kind of revolution or ideas that challenged the socia
