RCC faces budget cuts - Bob Shiles, Robesonian

Robeson Community College will be expected to do more with less money if projected state funding cuts take effect when the new fiscal year begins July 1, according to Pamela Hilbert, the college’s president. According to Hilbert, as the college prepares its budget for the new year, RCC could be operating with $1.9 million, or 9.8 percent, less than during the current fiscal year. The projected amount of state funding the college will receive in the upcoming fiscal year is $18,214,604, down from the current year of $20,187,842. “We definitely will feel these cuts,” Hilbert said. “They will be felt throughout the college.” http://robesonian.com/news/home_top-news/4555324/RCC-faces-budget-cuts
