SFCC lays off 3, cuts 2 programs to balance budget - Robert Nott, The New Mexican

Santa Fe Community College has laid off three employees and will eliminate two academic programs in a cost-cutting measure designed to cut some $500,000 from its operating budget. One of those two programs could be saved, however, if outside funding can be found by the fiscal year that starts July 1, college President Randy Grissom said Tuesday. But for now, he said, the school plans to close its radiologic technology program, which has only seven students learning to perform diagnostic imaging examinations and administer radiation therapy treatments. Also set for elimination is a gallery management program, which has even fewer students. http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/education/sfcc-lays-off-cuts-programs-to-balance-budget/article_fed23446-8e49-5ed6-876d-1fc24ea0ef92.html
