Cuesta College Faces Possible Program Cuts - King Harris, KVEC

To address its long-term financial health, Cuesta College is reducing the number of programs it offers to students. On Oct. 3, San Luis Obispo County Community College District Board of Trustees, Cuesta’s parent board, approved a Long-Term Budget Reduction Plan for 2013-2017 as part of the effort to address the school’s fiscal stability. The plan contains two scenarios: one with Proposition 30 passing, and one with the Nov. 6 ballot measure failing. Cuesta’s College Council, a panel of top administrators, division chairs, faculty members, classified staff and a student representative, has received a list of 29 programs to be ranked for possible elimination. http://920kvec.com/Cuesta-College-Faces-Possible-Program-Cuts/14568186
