JWCC passes balanced budget - Quincy Journal

The John Wood Community College Board of Trustees approved a $14,340,600 balanced operating budget during its regular meeting Wednesday, July 16 at the College’s Pittsfield Education Center. The 2015 budget is $600,000 less than the current year and includes a $323,000 reduction in state funding. JWCC projects students to enroll in 41,700 credit hours next year, a decrease of 1,750 from last year’s total of 43,450. The projection is based on a number of factors, including lower unemployment rates and smaller high school graduating classes. The College did exceed summer credit hour projections and is slightly ahead of the projection for fall credit hour production. http://quincyjournal.com/above-the-fold/2014/07/17/jwcc-passes-balanced-budget/
