Northwest Community College plans to slash budget by $1.4 million - Terrance Standard

Northwest Community College has announced spending cuts of $1.4 million, primarily affecting its university course credit program. While no academic courses will be cancelled outright, where and how they are offered is to change, said college communications director Sarah Zimmerman. “With under-enrolled courses, we looked at timetables so that instead, for example, of being offered several times it will be offered once,” she said. Smithers is to be affected the most as students there wishing to take university credit courses will now have to do so via teleconferencing or other electronic means. http://www.terracestandard.com/news/302238651.html
