Enrollment “Challenge”? Try Enrollment Crisis!
Their goal is to get 11,396 FTES for Summer and Spring…their solution: more “headcount” in classrooms (3.7FTES/section, or 30 students) + more sections (around 650 more sections to Spring and Summer). Why all the last minute cancelled sections in Spring 2013? Is it because Enrollment Management shut down registration from Dec. 21 – Jan 2? Is it because right after Prop 30 passed, they needed to recuperate the lost Winter? Have the students gone elsewhere where there is a Winter intersession ? Even if they solve the classroom space challenge, students have lost faith in PCC’s administration – and they’re not the only ones!
