Supporters of San Jose State's
CSU Identity Score a Victory
 A youthful CSU supporter, sporting a California State Bell T-shirt, poses with the Bell at its new location on the San Jose State campus.
It its new location beside Clark Hall the Bell is on a raised platform, making it easier to see from a distance. The monument also features a plaque recognizing the "California State Normal School" name chiseled into the bell's iron shell. For the first time, the Bell is also mentioned on San Jose State's website, where it was previously completely ignored.
"Congratulations to San Jose State for finally recognizing the power of this symbol of the school's identity as the founding campus of the California State University system," said Michael Harold, founder of the CSU Alumni of Silicon Valley. "We will ask the University to set up a fund so alumni and students can contribute to preserving this and other symbols of the school's identity as the first California State institution of higher learning." |

 SAN JOSE, CA - A new group of alumni at San Jose State recently helped bring about personnel changes at the school as a result of violations by SJSU officials of California State University (CSU) student and alumni rights guaranteed by U.S. and California law.
The California State University Alumni of Silicon Valley, a confederation of business school and other alumni from the oldest CSU campus in San Jose, asked top University officials for an investigation of SJSU treatment of San Jose students during the CSU Identity student initiative in March. As a result, SJSU VP of Marketing Jennifer Cauble, who first tried to crush and then defeat the Initiative, lost her job about a month later.
At least two members of the CSU ASV contact CSU Chancellor Reed and SJSU President Kassing about the misconduct of Cauble and others during the student election. Alumni-run websites like GoState.org and the Mission City Lantern also called for disciplinary action against Cauble and other SJSU officials, who attempted to deny students the right to vote on the Initiative. |

SAN JOSE, CA -- The aftermath of the recent San Jose State Student Student Initiative to restore a California State University (CSU) identity to the campus has resulted in the removal of a key SJSU administrator who campaigned against Initiative.
CSU student and alumni activists filed grievances with several state agencies after the vote, seeking investigation of possible violations of federal and state educational and civil rights laws by SJSU Associate VP of Marketing Jennifer Cauble and other SJSU officials. About a month later, Cauble mysteriously departed her position with the school without comment from the University with regard to the reason for her departure.
The Spartan Daily mentioned Ms. Caubles departure briefly, but characteristicly neglected any further reporting on an important issue for the school the Spartan Daily claims to cover in its reporting. |
