Covering the latest existential threat to City College of San Francisco for @KQED, I& #39;m reminded I& #39;ve written this story for a decade for multiple publications

Cuts cuts cuts!
At #CCSF& #39;s @theguardsman, I learned how to cover class cuts.
Even back then, the threat was the same: state receivership loomed, should the college not align its finances with state expectations. https://issuu.com/theguardsmanonline/docs/vol153_issue3">https://issuu.com/theguards...

There was a keen interest from @SFSU students on the future of #CCSF, because of course, there are transfer students from City College to State all the time.
So I covered the ongoing saga w/ @GGXnews https://goldengatexpress.org/39927/latest/news/save-ccsf-coalition/">https://goldengatexpress.org/39927/lat...

Fun fact: Writing about #CCSF helped me break into professional news. @timredmondsf needed a student journo w/CCSF knowledge, and while speaking to a journalism program, asked if anyone fit the bill
I wrote a few stories for ye olde @sfbg soon after: https://issuu.com/sf.guardian/docs/47.41">https://issuu.com/sf.guardi...

Perhaps my favorite writing on #CCSF back then was @SFWeekly, a cover story: "Mission Improbable"
(this @internetarchive link works better than the real one)
I took a dive into CA& #39;s creation of community colleges, and how CCSF represents that vision: https://web.archive.org/web/20150106085943/http://www.sfweekly.com/sanfrancisco/city-college-san-francisco-community-college-education/Content?oid=3289247&showFullText=true">https://web.archive.org/web/20150...

When @sfbg closed in 2014 I started @sfexaminer full time.
That& #39;s where all the previous experience culminated in coverage of @SFCityAttorney& #39;s lawsuit against #CCSF& #39;s accreditors.

.. years later, now covering this @KQED, the dual visions of the college are still the same.
In a decade, the question still hasn& #39;t been settled. SF and CA haven& #39;t decided on a final path for #CCSF.
It& #39;s echoed in all these stories across a decade: https://www.kqed.org/news/11872984/ccsf-approves-plan-to-avoid-layoffs-sf-mulls-permanent-fund-for-threatened-classes">https://www.kqed.org/news/1187...
