Two major changes occurred in 1982. First, CSU was able to quietly obtain passage of a bill dropping the word "colleges" from its name.<ref name="Gerth_Page_554">{{cite book|last1=Gerth|first1=Donald R.|title=The People's University: A History of the California State University|date=2010|publisher=Berkeley Public Policy Press|location=Berkeley|isbn=978-0-87772-435-3|page=554}}</ref>  Second, [[W. Ann Reynolds]] succeeded Dumke as CSU's third chancellor, and brought a dramatically different management style to the CSU system.<ref name="Gerth_Page_554" />   In many ways, Reynolds was the opposite of the "quiet" and "apolitical" Dumke.<ref name="Gerth_Page_554" />  Despite the severe budget pressures brought about by the passage of [[1978 California Proposition 13|Proposition 13]], Reynolds was able to achieve moderate success in improving parity between CSU and UC funding.<ref name="Gerth_Page_554" /> She was unsuccessful in her other long-term objective, securing for CSU the right to award doctorates independently of UC.<ref name="Gerth_Page_554" />  When she asked Dumke for help, he replied that "he had given his word in 1960 and did not believe it principled to change."<ref name="Gerth_Page_554" />   A week later, he testified before the state legislature and did not support the independent doctorate for CSU.<ref name="Gerth_Page_555">{{cite book|last1=Gerth|first1=Donald R.|title=The People's University: A History of the California State University|date=2010|publisher=Berkeley Public Policy Press|location=Berkeley|isbn=978-0-87772-435-3|page=555}}</ref>

Meanwhile, various problems with the 400 Golden Shore building forced the chancellor's office to move to a new building after only 22 years.<ref name="Gerth_Page_437">{{cite book|last1=Gerth|first1=Donald R.|title=The People's University: A History of the California State University|date=2010|publisher=Berkeley Public Policy Press|location=Berkeley|isbn=978-0-87772-435-3|page=437 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=NKH8c1LMlZ4C&q=401+golden}}</ref>   The solution was to trade spaces with the parking lot across the street to the north, a site with better soil conditions.<ref name="Gerth_Page_437" />  In spring 1998, CSU moved into its current headquarters at 401 Golden Shore, then demolished the old building and turned its site into a parking lot.<ref name="Gerth_Page_437" />

Today, the campuses of the CSU system include [[comprehensive university|comprehensive universities]] and [[Institute of Technology (United States)|polytechnic universities]] along with the only [[maritime Academy|maritime academy]] in the western United States.

In May 2020, it was announced that all 23 institutions within the CSU system would host majority-online courses in the Fall 2020 semester as a result of the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] and the [[Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on education|impact of the pandemic on education]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=California State University campuses to remain closed through fall semester, online instruction to continue|url=https://abc7.com/6176291/|date=2020-05-13|website=ABC7 Los Angeles|language=en|access-date=2020-05-14}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Some of California's main universities not likely to return to campus this fall|url=https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/12/us/california-universities-fall-online/index.html|author1=Theresa Waldrop |author2=Jon Passantino |author3=Sarah Moon|website=CNN|access-date=2020-05-14}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Hubler|first=Shawn|date=2020-05-12|title=Fearing a Second Wave, Cal State Will Keep Classes Online in the Fall|language=en-US|work=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/12/us/cal-state-online-classes.html|access-date=2020-05-14|issn=0362-4331}}</ref>

Near the end of 2022, the CSU actively opposed the proposed expansion of the California Community Colleges' right to confer a limited number of four-year bachelor's degrees.<ref name="Weissman">{{cite news |last1=Weissman |first1=Sara |title=A Legal Impasse or a Turf War? |url=https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2022/12/05/cal-state-objects-proposed-four-year-programs-two-year-colleges |access-date=September 14, 2023 |work=Inside Higher Ed |date=December 4, 2022}}</ref> The community colleges involved noted how ironic it was for CSU to be pushing back against them, in light of CSU's long-running battle with UC over the right to award the doctorate.<ref name="Weissman" />

In July 2023, CSU's systemwide [[Title IX]] compliance was harshly criticized in a report prepared by the [[Cozen O'Connor]] law firm at the request of the Board of Trustees (at a cost of over $1 million) and separately in another report prepared by the [[California State Auditor]] at the request of the Legislature.<ref name="Le Coz">{{cite news |last1=Le Coz |first1=Emily |last2=Jacoby |first2=Kenny |title=CSU, nation's largest university system, mishandled sexual misconduct, bullying claims |url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/investigations/2023/07/17/csu-title-ix-violation-investigation/70420045007/ |access-date=21 July 2023 |work=USA Today |date=July 17, 2023}}</ref> The Cozen report found that CSU's legal department and Title IX coordinators were severely understaffed.<ref name="Le Coz" /> Cozen reported there was a widespread perception throughout the CSU system that "individual campus administrators act to protect the interests of the institution rather than care for the individuals who have been harmed".<ref name="Le Coz" />

In January 2024, CSU faculty including professors, lecturers, counselors, librarians and coaches began a system-wide strike.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-01-22/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cal-state-facultys-first-ever-systemwide-strike|title=Thousands of CSU faculty vow to 'shut down' campuses in first systemwide strike|first=Debbie|last=Troung|work=Los Angeles Times|date=January 22, 2024|accessdate=January 22, 2024}}</ref> The strike, which consisted of 30,000 CSU faculty members and affected all of CSU's 23 campuses, was set to be held for five days, with faculty members seeking a 12% pay increase.<ref>{{Cite web |author-last1=Rodriguez|author-first1=Olga R. |date=2024-01-22 |title=California State University faculty reach tentative contract agreement and will end strike |url=https://apnews.com/article/california-state-university-faculty-strike-4d123a00b900fb7007c81b39256bcded |access-date=2024-01-24 |website=AP News |language=en}}</ref> The strike, which ended after less than a day, resulted in a tentative agreement with two 5% pay increases (one retroactive to July 1, 2023 and one planned for July 1, 2024) as well as extended parental leave, more increases for lower-paid faculty, and more benefits.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://abcnews.go.com/US/30000-california-state-university-workers-set-strike/story?id=106561392|title=California State University workers end strike after reaching tentative agreement|first1=Max|last1=Zahn|first2=Jolie|last2=Lash|publisher=ABC News|date=January 23, 2024|accessdate=January 24, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Rodriguez |first=Matthew |date=2024-01-22 |title=California State Universities reach tentative agreement with faculty and staff - CBS Los Angeles |url=https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/california-state-universities-reach-tentative-agreement-with-staff/ |access-date=2024-01-25 |website=www.cbsnews.com |language=en-US}}</ref> Support for the agreement among faculty has been mixed.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-01-24/cal-state-strike-settles-quickly-to-mixed-reviews|title=CSU and faculty union reach tentative pact with lightening speed, and not all are happy|work=Los Angeles Times|date=2024-01-24|accessdate=2024-01-24}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.dailynews.com/2024/01/23/csu-faculty-seem-split-on-merits-of-tentative-labor-deal-announced-monday/|title=CSU faculty seem split on merits of tentative labor deal announced Monday|first=Dorothy|last=Elder|publisher=Los Angeles Daily News|date=January 23, 2024|accessdate=January 24, 2024}}</ref>

In 2026, the number of CSU campuses will shrink, as Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo will be absorbing Cal State Maritime, which will become an off-campus branch by the name of Cal Poly, Solano Campus.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |date=2024-11-21 |title=CSU Board of Trustees Approves Cal Maritime and Cal Poly Integration {{!}} Cal Poly |url=https://www.calpoly.edu/news/csu-board-trustees-approves-cal-maritime-and-cal-poly-integration |access-date=2024-11-21 |website=www.calpoly.edu |language=en}}</ref>
