Budget cuts

Thursday in class we ended up discussing the budget crises, which isn’t that surprising. You’d understand if you are in college. At one point an individual says, after a comment about how many teachers were fired, “But no staff were fired?” the teacher replies yes to this because well that is true. The student then says rather cynically “typical” I wanted to at this point stand up and start laying in on him. What this student and most other ones don’t know is that since 1995 there hasn’t been a single faculty lay off, but dozens of staff lay offs each semester.

Sorry this on is short...it has been a busy first week of school. If you have any comments about the budget cuts in general contact your local Representative or the governor himself (governor@governor.ca.gov) also (916)445-2841. Schwarzengger is willing to hear your points. Don't comment to me if you have complaints, only comment to me if you have something to say about this post itself.
