What is the value of community colleges?

On the next Your Call, we'll be broadcasting live from the Mission Campus of the City College of San Francisco. Community colleges have long offered affordable and accessible education to people of all ages and walks of life. But budget cuts have resulted in potential students being turned away and a loss of services. What do we lose as community colleges scale back? Join us at 10 or email feedback@yourcallradio.org. What is your community college story? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Dora Palacios, student in community health program at the Ocean Campus of CCSF

Juan Rodolfo Cendejas, student in business and graphics at Mission Campus of CCSF and president of the Associated Student Council

Lulu Orozco, student in journalism program at Ocean Campus of CCSF

Jessie Ryan, associate director with the Campaign for College Opportunity in Sacramento
