New CSU Identity Does Nothing for SJ Students, Alumni

The CSU has a great new identity package for the Chancellor's office, but students and alumni from the original and oldest California State (1862) institution of higher learning are still prohibited from effectively identifying and marketing themselves as CSU graduates.

Is this fair or right, and why don't the CSU Trustees or the Chancellor's office help students and alumni in San Jose secure their full rights as CSU students/alumni?

Also, why does the CSU use the 1857 year of establishment of the City of San Francisco Minn's Normal School, instead of the May 2, 1862, date the California Legislature established the California State Normal School, which became the CSU? This is a clear violation of both the letter and spirit the 1862 Legislation.
