Dive Brief:

• California's governor is pressing for more online education and suggesting the Cal State University system may need to make building repairs before increasing enrollment.
• Last fall, more than 22,000 eligible students were turned away, a legacy of the state's fiscal crisis.
• The schools are asking for $250 million to enroll 20,000 more students, but the governor questioned whether the system may be over-reaching in its enrollment plans.

Dive Insight:

Gov. Jerry Brown has been a big proponent of MOOCs to help cash-strapped universities reach more students. But several Cal State trustees are expressing frustration at the pace of efforts to develop online classes. This fall, 33 online-only courses in the Cal State system enrolled about 200 students.
