So our government has decided, for a reason that truly escapes me, to cut the funding for a large majority of our college. Cleaning staff, teachers, regular staff, programs... everything is being effected in some sense. The official walk out is on wed, a day I don't even have day classes, so in my place if anyone wants to protest feel free to hop on the bus and head down to the parliament buildings.
This funding cut will leave teachers and staff out on the streets. Our nursing program, one of the largest on the island, is being cut in half. Whole buildings are being left unattended as janitors and repair men are being let go. At the moment, one man is now responsible for cleaning two whole buildings.
I'm not going to tell you this is outrageous - you are intelligent people (I know this because you are reading my blog, thus you must be intelligent :)
