Beaufort County Community College makes changes after budget cuts - Zora Stephenson, WNCT

Beaufort County Community College is facing a 10 percent budget cut for the second year in a row, meaning the school will have to make $1.1 million worth of cuts. An email was sent out by the school last week explaining the cuts, detailing why there are changes, what positions will be eliminated, and said students will not be impacted. President Dr. Barbara Tansey wants things to remain normal for students while she figures out how to operate without $1 million worth of funds “So if you total all of it together, it’s about 15 positions and again that’s full and part-time mix,” said Tansey. Layoffs are one way Tansey will make ends meet. The other is equipment reductions. http://wnct.com/2017/04/19/beaufort-county-community-college-makes-changes-after-budget-cuts/
