Council proposes to eliminate two colleges - Sarah Chase, Xpress SFSU

The number of colleges that SF State is divided into could be reduced from eight to six if a proposal by the University Planning Advisory Council is approved. Still in the preliminary phases, the proposal is written to reconfigure and combine colleges in an effort to save over a million dollars and reduce the expanding budget deficit, according to the UPAC. "We're thinking of a long-term vision on how to come to grips with budget shortfalls," UPAC Chair Shawn Whelan said.
