The City College of San Francisco Board of Trustees overwhelmingly voted late Friday evening to cut roughly 300 classes and 176 teachers in the next academic year.
The cuts are needed, the board claimed, to offset large budget shortfalls. Five trustees agreed with the proposal with Alan Wong being the lone dissenting vote.
"I'm a single parent," said Patricia Miller, a theater performance instructor. "It means I have no idea because the H.R. folks haven't told us when me and my daughter's health insurance are going to crash." "I'm personally devastated because I love working here. I love my students," Buckley said."But it's not about me. It's about the opportunities that are going to be lost. If you cut faculty, you're going to have to cut classes. Students are not going to have the opportunities that they need."
