After two years of debate, an effort by the UCLA Anderson School of Management to forgo state funding for its full-time MBA program and become financially self-supporting has hit a huge roadblock.

On Aug. 31, the Coordinating Committee on Graduate Affairs of the University of California Academic Senate voted 10-0 with one abstention to suspend its review of the proposal, according to a memo to UCLA Anderson Dean Judy Olian, who championed the self-sufficiency move as a way to deal with declining state support.
