CCSF cuts summer classes
KCBS in San Francisco reports that City College of San Francisco, the largest community college in the nation, has cut most if not all its classes for Summer 2010.
"City College of San Francisco will be offering very few, if any, classes this summer. Summer school classes at the community college are being cancelled because of funding cuts.
The state has slashed the budget for community colleges and CCSF took a $20 million hit, which adds up to about 900 classes in the summer."
