City College of San Francisco Begins Downsizing
Submitted by Paul Fain on October 29, 2012 - 3:00am
City College of San Francisco's governing board early Friday approved changes to its leadership structure, the San Francisco Chronicle reported . The college, which is facing dire accreditation and budget woes, will require that dozens of academic department chairs go back to the classroom and relinquish their administrative duties. The move, which will save an estimated $2 million, was part of the first stage of a broad downsizing. Trustees also approved cuts to college-operated child-care centers.
