PHIL GOMEZ TOLD US ABOUT THE

OUTCOME OF THAT MEETING.

PHIL: IT IS ALL OVER RIGHT NOW.

THE PROTESTERS MET WITH THE

ADMINISTRATION FOR ABOUT AN HOUR

, AND MOMENTS AGO WE LEARNED

THAT THE ADMINISTRATION AGREED

TO ALL OF THE DEMANDS OF THE

STUDENTS.

YOU SEE -- THE UC CHANCELLOR

KEPT HIS APPOINTMENT WITH THE

STUDENTS.

THE NEGOTIATIONS WERE MOVED TO

ANOTHER SITE ON CAMPUS.

IT WAS NOT OPEN TO THE NEWS

MEDIA.

EIGHT ALLIANCE TOOK OVER THE

BUILDING TUESDAY AND PLANT TO

STAY PUT UNTIL THE DEMANDS WERE

MET.

IT IS THIS BUILDING THAT IS AT

THE HEART OF NEGOTIATIONS.

IN AN INTERVIEW WITH FOX NEWS, A

STUDENT SAID IT IS IN THE MIDDLE

OF STEVENSON COLLEGE,

PREDOMINANTLY WHITE SERVING

COLLEGE, IS A MATTER OF

SYMBOLISM.

>> IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME

TO GIVE MORE TO ONE SET OF

STUDENTS THEN ANOTHER.

PHIL: AMONG THE GROUPS DEMANDS

ARE SEPARATE HOUSING FOR BLACK

STUDENTS, PAINTING THE ROSA

PARKS THEMED HOUSE RED, GREEN

AND BLACK AND HAVE MANDATORY

DIVERSITY TRAINING FOR NEW

STUDENTS AND TRANSFERS.

>> WE ARE TRAINED TO RECRUIT THE

MOST DIVERSE LAST EVERY YEAR

THAT REFLECTS CALIFORNIA.

PHIL: MORE STUDENTS APPEARED TO

BE JOINING IN ON THE SIT-IN AT

THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING

BECAUSE THEY SHARE THOSE SAME

, CONCERNS.

>> I THINK THOSE GROUPS HERE ARE

UNDERREPRESENTED.

PHIL: BUT THERE A LOT MORE

STUDENTS WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT

THIS PROTEST IS ALL ABOUT

, BECAUSE LITTLE INFORMATION IS

BEING RELEASED BY THE

DEMONSTRATORS.

>> THEY WOULDN'T TALK TO NEWS

CREWS, SO I AM NOT ENTIRELY SURE

WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT.

PHIL: THE ADMINISTRATION HAS

AGREED TO ALL OF THE DEMANDS

THAT THE STUDENTS.

MANY ARE GOING TO GO INTO EFFECT

THIS FALL, SO IT IS GOING TO

HAPPEN THIS FALL.

STUDENTS ARE NOW CLEANING UP THE

WHOLE RIGHT NOW BEFORE THEY

PMOVED OUT.

AITLIN

CONRAD IS LIVE IN MONTEREY WITH

TONIGHT'S TOP STORY.

CAITLIN: ERIN, PEOPLE FROM ALL

OVER THE WORLD COME TO MONTEREY

TO VACATION, BUT FEWER HAVE BEEN

COMING IN 2017, AND THE TORS AND

EURO GIRL IS WORRIED ABOUT THE

NUMBERS FOR THE YEAR.

-- AND THAT TOURISM BUREAU IS

WORRIED ABOUT THE NUMBERS FOR

THE YEAR.

>> THIS SUMMER IS A QUESTION

MARK FOR US REALLY.

CAITLIN: TAMMY BLOUNT SAYS

TOURISM HAS TAKEN A HIT IN 2017

BECAUSE OF DAMAGE FROM WINTER

STORMS, AND THAT IS BAD NEWS FOR

THE PENINSULA'S LARGEST

INDUSTRY.

>> TOURISM IN MONTEREY COUNTY IN

2016 PRODUCED $2.8 BILLION IN

VISITOR SPENDING.

CAITLIN: THE INDUSTRY PROVID

25,000 JOBS AND GENERATES $750

PER HOUSEHOLD IN TAX REVENUE,

BUT THE HIGHWAY 1 CLOSURE IN BIG

SUR HAS SLOWED THINGS DOWN.

>> YOU CAN GET AS FAR DOWN AS

THE RANGER STATION, WHICH IS

RIGHT HERE.

>> I THINK IT IS MORE ABOUT THE

NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL

VISITOR, THIS CARMEL AND BIG S

ARE ON THEIR BUCKET LIST.

WHEN THEY HEAR THAT BIG SUR IS

CLOSED THEY GO, "OH, WE WILL GO

NEXT YEAR."

CAITLIN: MONTA POTTER WITH THE

CARMEL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE SAYS

THE CLOSURE HASN'T JUST IMPACTED

BIG SUR BUSINESSES.

IT'S AFFECTED MONTEREY AND

CARMEL, TOO.

>> JANUARY, FEBRUARY, MARCH WERE

DIFFICULT FOR THE BUSINESSES.

CAITLIN: THE VISITOR'S BUREAU

SAYS A BIG PART OF THE PROBLEM

IS THE IMPRESSION THAT ALL OF

BIG SUR IS CLOSED, AND THE

NON-PROFIT IS INVESTING $100,000

TO GET THE MESSAGE OUT THAT

PARTS OF IT ARE OPEN.

>> MAKE SURE TO DO EVERYTHING

THAT WE CAN TO MAKE SURE THAT

VISITORS AND LOCALS KNOW THAT

THERE ARE BUSINESSES IN BIG SUR

THAT ARE OPEN.

CAITLIN: THE NUMBERS FROM THE

STATE ON TOURISM ALSO CAME OUT

TODAY, AND IT WAS UP 3.1% ACROSS

CALIFORNIA, BUT IN MONTERE

COUNTY WE BEAT THAT NUMBER WITH

3.7% IN GROWTH AND THE VISITORS

BUREAU IS DOING ALL IT CAN TO

KEEP PACE.

ERIN: 2016 MARKED THE SIXTH

STRAIGHT YEAR OF GROWTH IN

Thousands of children need foster homes in Missouri and Kansas - Duration: 1:39.

KELLY: TAKE A LOOK AT THE

NUMBERS.

7,000 CHILDREN IN THE FOSTER

CARE SYSTEM IN KANSAS RIGHT NOW.

THAT'S A RECORD HIGH.

ONLY 2800 FOSTER FAMILIES.

THE STATE IS LAUNCHING AN

AWARENESS CAMPAIGN TO RECRUIT

MORE FOSTER PARENTS.

A LOCAL CHILD ADVOCATE SAYS

THERE'S NO EASY SOLUTION

>> IT JUST BREAKS MY HEART.

IT'S A TERRIBLE THING FOR A

CHILD TO HAVE TO FEEL AS IF THEY

DONT MATTER ENOUGH TO MAKE I

INTO A HOME, INTO A FAMILY.

WE HAVE NEW UNDERWEAR, SOCKS,

SHOES.

KELLY: LORI ROSS, A FOSTER CARE

AND ADOPTION ADVOCATE, IS

DEVASTATED ABOUT CHILDREN

SLEEPING IN OFFICES WAITING FOR

EVEN A TEMPORARY HOME.

BUT SHE'S NOT SURPRISED.

>> THAT IS A HORRIBLE HEADLINE

AND CERTAINLY I AM GLAD THAT IT

RAISES AWARENESS AND MAK

PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE,

SHOULD. BUT REALLY WHAT OUR

SYSTEM NEEDS TO DO IS FOCUS ON

THE ACTUAL KIDS THAT ARE IN THE

SYSTEM WHO NEED FAMILIES. KANS

KELL KANSAS IS LAUNCHING A

CAMPAIGN THIS MONTH RAISING

AWARENESS ABOUT THE NEED FOR

FOSTER FAMILIES.

ROSS SAYS IT'S A START, BUT NOT

A SOLUTION.

SHE WANTS MORE MONEY SPENT ON

TRAINING AND SUPPORT FOR

POTENTIAL FOSTER FAMILIES.

>> ONCE THEY GET IN THERE, THAT

EITHER THE SYSTEM ISNT WELCOMING

AND SUPPORTIVE OR THAT THE KIDS

NEEDS ARE MORE THAN THEY

BARGAINED FOR AND VERY OFTEN WE

DON'T RETAIN THOSE FAMILIES FOR

ANY LENGTH OF TIME

KELLY: BOTH KANSAS AND MISSIOURI

ARE EXPERIENCING A RECORD NUMBER

CHILDREN NEEDING FOSTER HOMES.

IT STARTED RISING DURING THE

RECESSION AND NOW THE CHILDREN

OF OPIOID-ADDICTED PARENTS ARE

FUELING THOSE NUMBERS AGAIN.

IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN BEING A

FOSTER PARENT, I HAVE SOME LINKS

WHERE YOU CAN GET STARTED ON MY
