Construction on Chinatown Campus Halted
Community college supporters outraged at decision to cut fundsBy Ji Hyun LimAfter waiting patiently for 25 years for a new Chinatown/ North Beach community college campus site, faculty union and students of the City College of San Francisco were outraged that plans to build a new site may be halted for yet another year. In July (when the state budget was approved), Governor Gray Davis announced increased cuts to community colleges, directly impacting City College’s plan to install a new building. Supporters of the building vented their frustrations at Governor Davis during a press conference held last Wednesday. Over a dozen community organizers, campus instructors and media representatives, gathered outside the current location on Filbert Street. The initial plans to proceed with the architectural designs for the new site on Columbus and Washington Street stopped immediately upon hearing news of Davis’ last-minute decision to cut funds. |
