City College to drop one third of class offerings over 7 years - Michael Toren, SF Examiner

City College of San Francisco administrators say they need to permanently cancel as much as a third of the school’s class offerings over the next several years to fix what they describe as 20-year structural budget problem. The college passed a $185 million operating budget in August which includes an $11 million deficit, down from a $25 million deficit the year before. But in order to reach a balanced budget, City College Chancellor Mark Rocha told the Board of Trustees earlier this month that the college must stop offering approximately 400 historically under-enrolled credit classes. The college currently offers “dozens” of majors that graduate fewer than 10 students a year, he said. http://www.sfexaminer.com/city-college-drop-one-third-class-offerings-7-years/City College to drop one third of class offerings over 7 years
