Summary

Existing law establishes the California State University and its various campuses under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University. Existing law provides that the name "California State University" and the names of various campuses of the California State University, and abbreviations of those names, including "Cal Maritime," are the property of the state, and prohibits the use of any of these names without the permission of the trustees.
