CCSF Class Cuts: Media attention & next steps

Did you catch the Press Briefing on March 20th before Spring Break at Chinatown? There was good coverage by the San Francisco Examiner and especially by 48 Hills. A few radio stations also picked up the story: KIQI interviewed President Jenny Worley and KPFA interviewed Vice President Wynd Kaufmyn. Additionally, the San Francisco Chronicle Editorial Board met with us to better understand the issues and get a perspective different than the Chancellor’s. As a result, the SF Chronicle published our op-edand so far they have not published anything from the Chancellor like we had been expecting.

What’s next? Grow our CCSF Coalition Survey & Public Comment to the Board of Trustees:

AFT 2121 is working with the Grow our CCSF Coalition, a broad based coalition of students and community allies fund out how class cuts affect San Franciscans. Please complete this survey about class reductions and please share it with your students (survey also in Chinese and in Spanish).

We will be making public comments and giving a presentation with the Grow our CCSF Coalition to Board of the initial survey results at their special meeting on the Fall 2019 schedule on Tuesday 4/23 at 4pm in MUB 140. Please join us to make a public comment to the board about the class schedule for Fall 2019. This is one of our last opportunities to make comments to trustees before the Fall 2019 draft schedule comes out in early May. Please join us.
