Open for debate
 The campus in the capital city was again in the campaign spotlight as Sac State and the California Broadcasters Association co-hosted the only live statewide debate between gubernatorial candidates Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and State Treasurer Phil Angelides. The one-hour event took place on Oct. 7 in Capistrano Hall.
The debate was available by satellite to all California radio and television stations and included simultaneous Spanish translation and closed captioning. Major networks carried the debate live and hundreds of media representatives were on campus to cover the event.
Hosting gubernatorial debates is nothing new to the campus. Sac State and the California Broadcasters Association hosted the 2003 Recall Debate featuring the five leading candidates—an event that attracted worldwide attention. And in 1998, they also hosted a debate featuring Gray Davis and Dan Lungren.
