San Francisco State University staff are facing layoffs as the university deals with budget issues.
Sean Connelly has made his career as an adjunct lecturer in the Humanities Department at San Francisco State University.'I spent 17 years of my life here. And I did the best job I possibly could,' said Connelly as he was walking into the humanities building for one of the last times as an employee. He's one of dozens of adjunct lecturers who are losing their jobs as SF State cuts its staff amid a shrinking budget.'It means the rupturing of a community. To lose that is angering.
'It's been a part of my life for most of my life this university,' said Jolie Goorjian, who is losing her job as a literature and English lecturer after 23 years.She first came to the university as a 17-year-old student and earned undergrad and graduate degrees from SFSU.For her, parting ways is taking a heavy toll.'It's a labor of love. We're not paid well.
