I am pleased to present the Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report of the California State Teachers Retirement
System for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002. The report is
intended to provide complete and reliable information as a basis
for making management decisions, determining compliance with legal
provisions and determining responsible stewardship of the Teachers
Retirement Plan and the CalSTRS 403(b) Program. Please note the
Teachers Retirement Plan consists of the Defined Benefit
and Cash Balance Benefit programs.
The compilation of this comprehensive annual financial
report reflects the combined effort of CalSTRS staff under the
leadership of the Teachers Retirement Board. I commend their
efforts on creating another outstanding report. In addition, I
take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the staff, advisors
and the many other people and organizations who have worked so
diligently to assure the successful operation of the California
State Teachers Retirement System.
