UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla says his impression from the Cal State bloc is that Cal State Bakersfield should be added if UCSD is to get into the Big West.

Take this for what it's worth

If you look at the (Big West vote), I’m told, the UC chancellors voted yes and the Cal State chancellors voted no. And what I’m given to understand is that the Cal State leaders believe that Cal State Bakersfield should be admitted if UC San Diego is voted in.I’m also told that, in the past, Bakersfield’s request to be admitted into the Big West was not approved.

I’m a pretty egalitarian, inclusive guy. My view is let both institutions be admitted. We are not doing this for the edification of the chancellor or the institution. We are doing this for these young men and women who are students. It’s not like we are going to make millions and millions of dollars. All of these campuses are not in big TV viewing areas.
