In late November, Chancellor Rocha cancelled 300 Spring and Summer classes, leaving students without needed classes, laying off faculty, slashing instructors’ income, and cutting off health benefits to many. Immediately, a coalition of AFT 2121 leaders, rank-and-file members, students, and community allies, began working with Supervisor Shaman Walton on a plan to restore the cancelled classes via a supplemental budget allocation from the City. Although the $2.7M budget supplemental passed the Board of Supervisors in a 7-4 vote in January, Mayor Breed vetoed the measure last week, cruelly dismissing the needs of our students, our faculty, and our community.
Nevertheless, 2121 members and leaders will continue to fight for a fully funded Community College. To that end, a group of rank and file members have called for an emergency general membership meeting to strategize about our immediate path forward. Please join us for a discussion of the critical issues we face with these deep cuts to our college. We hope members will share information, ideas and concerns, learn from each other and other CCSF constituent groups, and all work together to formulate and implement a plan.
