### SECTION 1.

(1) As a result of the growing demographic of historically underrepresented groups, the success of diverse college groups is tied to Californias collective social and economic success.

(2) Today, the need for educating diverse students is most evident at our public colleges and universities where, due to a variety of reasons, the majority of underrepresented students are studying.

(3) If Californias public higher education institutions are to be successful in retaining, transferring, and graduating underrepresented students, these institutions must provide the additional services and programs needed to ensure the academic success of these students.

(4) Californias public higher education institutions must implement comprehensive programs that address the needs of students for academic and career counseling and that help students to make the social, intellectual, and geographic transitions to college life.

(5) Enacted during the 201314 legislative session, the local control funding formula (LCFF) made major changes to the way the state allocates funding to public elementary and secondary education by recognizing that historically underserved populations require additional services and programs to ensure their academic success.

(6) The LCFF weighs factors relating to the number of low-income pupils, English language learners, and foster youth, and provides supplemental or concentration grants for public elementary and secondary schools that serve large numbers of these pupils.

(7) The issues that necessitate that provision of additional educational services and programs for historically underserved populations at the K12 grade levels do not disappear once these students enroll in institutions of higher education.

(b) Therefore, it is the intent of the Legislature to enact a funding formula for Californias public postsecondary educational institutions that will provide a stable year-to-year funding mechanism while providing additional moneys to aid those categories of LCFF students who are currently targeted for additional funding at the K12 grade levels.
