Rogue Community College Makes Some Difficult Choices to Balance Budget Deficit - KAJO

Facing a significant reduction in state funding, Rogue Community College is making some difficult choices to balance its budget. RCC is raising tuition, reducing staff -- including some layoffs -- and making program changes. The RCC Board says the governor's budget allocates $550 million to community colleges which is the same allocation received in the last biennium. The proposed budget is projected to create a $5.2 million shortfall in the next biennium for RCC. http://www.kajo.com/news/local/stories.php?subaction=showfull&id=1492148996&ucat=2,4
