SF's City College Launching Fundraiser To Save Cafeteria - Bay City News
City College of San Francisco's cafeteria is not just a place for students to buy food, it's a training ground for culinary arts and hospitality students who get hands-on experience in their fields. But the training program, which allows students to prepare and serve hundreds of meals a day, is now set to become the latest victim of budget cuts unless a fundraising campaign starting Monday is successful, according to college officials. The culinary arts and hospitality program must cut $250,000 from its $1.6 million budget, which will prompt the closure of the cafeteria in three months unless additional funds can be found, department chair Tannis Reinhertz said today. The cafeteria is at the core of the culinary arts program, Reinhertz said.
