The fiscal year 2015-16 budget reduces Columbia Gorge Community College's organizational size to align with current enrollment levels and resource constraints. Enrollment is expected to remain at lowered levels for the next two to three years while the economy continues to expand at a rapid pace which reduces demand for professional retraining. The majority of college reductions are in the functional areas of Institutional Support, Student Services, and Facility Maintenance. All current programs, degrees, and certificates are maintained in fiscal year 2015-16. Average class sizes are expected to increase from the mid-teens in the current year to the low twenties in the 2015-16 academic year. Columbia Gorge Community College will continue to offer smaller class sizes than state-wide community college averages. This budget allocates funds for a full update to the college's academic master plan. The current academic master plan expires in 2016.
