Cal State Fullerton will receive $1.6 million in federal stimulus money that will allow the campus to reinstate 264 courses and rehire some lecturers this spring, officials said today. The courses will be spread throughout the university’s eight colleges, said spokeswoman Paula Selleck. The actual courses have not yet been determined, but priority will be placed on those aimed for juniors and seniors to help them graduate on time, Selleck said. Officials are also working on determining how many lecturers may be rehired. The one-time federal funding will only allow the university to reinstate the courses and lecturers for this spring semester. The courses and jobs could be lost again next fall without additional funding sources, Selleck said.
