Budget Cuts Could Affect JCC

New York Governor David Paterson's plan to close a budget gap of more than $3 billion may affect Jamestown Community College.

Paterson's two-year, $5 billion plan includes slashing $90 million in current-year spending from the State University of New York system and an additional $22.7 million from the state's community colleges.

Community colleges such as JCC are considered local entities, meaning that the proposed cut to their budgets must pass through the state Legislature.

JCC officials say it's too early to speculate how budget reductions would impact the college and its students.
