Dear colleagues,
Yesterday the College P&B learned that CUNY has cut nearly $10 million from the QC budget. In a separate email I sent around the materials that were distributed. The get to the bottom line, the adjunct budget is one area that will significantly impacted and we have been told that courses with low enrollment will be cancelled. For us, we can argue for 8 students to make the cut, but this still leaves us with many courses that will have to be cancelled for the fall.
On the bright side, we have had a healthy influx of new admissions this past spring and summer, so I expect that the situation will look better come spring. Thank you for understanding.
