City College Administration Keeps Students And Cuts Hours


CHICAGO Work-Study students at City College can expect a 5 percent cut in work
hours. In result of a 5 percent cut in funding, City College Administration must make
some adjustments. Instead of removing students from the work-study program,
administration will make a 5 percent cut in all hours worked by students.
When asked how he feels about the cut in hours, freshman art major, Cameron Cook
says, It sucks that our hours are cut, but Im still really grateful to have my job. Cook
works at both the student union coffee shop and the school bookstore with other workstudy students.
Located in the heart of Chicago, City College is an urban two-year institution that is
continuously growing. Founded in 1983, City College is home to approximately 15,000
students; 20 percent of those students work for the college part-time. These 3,000
students can expect to keep their employment with a reduction of work hours.
