Cuts To Community Colleges

If things couldn't get any easier for a student wanting to persue a higher education. Nationally Community Colleges are seeing an increase in attendance but a decrease in funding. Due to the low funding many schools had to cut a decent amount of classes, which in turn resulted in over populating the classes they do have. Schools are faced with the option to limit the amount of students enrolled until more funding comes in.

Students have chose to attend Community Colleges for the low cost, compared to a 4-yr college, and as a perfect place for our adult students to get re-trained in different areas, to expand their skills, as they move to different job positions in the job market. The school officials are trying to accomodate as many students as possible, but are limited and what they can do.

Funding has always been issue regarding our youth. Will government officials finally re-evaluate our education budget and overall issues, so they can possibly be addressed?
