INDEX NEWS Page 1 & 2 CAMPUS VIEWS Page 3 SPORTS Page 4 Clackamas Community College Vol. XXVIII No. 10 The Clackamas Print challenges staff, students to save, raise money by Tina Guinn , Editor-in-Chief In the last issue of The Clackamas Print, News Editor Anjanette Booth reported on the drop in full-time equivalent en rollment This downswing means a revenue loss of approximately $300,000. What does that mean for students? Due to the projected loss in revenue, the CCC budget commit tee is looking at a $2 per credit tuition increase for the 1995-1996 school year. However, this is not the only change to be imple mented to help combat the tight financial situation. Fortunately, the money re serves are in “good shape,” to handle short-term deficit prob lems, according to a memo sent out by the President’s Council Jan. 11. Although there seems to be no immediate financial difficul ties, the budget is expected to move into negative numbers in 1996-97 and 1997-98 when all cash carry over from the previous years is depleted. The President’s Council needs our help raising the bud get. Any cost saving and/or rev enue-generating ideas would help raise the budget. That is why we, at The Clackamas Print, have created a list of money-saving. And we challenge all of you to do your part in combating the monetary decrease. Please direct you ideas to The Clackamas Print Staff in Barlow 104, or call ext. 2309.
