SAVE our SENIOR citizens classes

The Issue

Help us save our senior citizens classes at Clackamas Community College. (CCC). Senior citizens get a reduced tuition cost (NOT FREE) at CCC. The CCC budget committee and current administration have decided to cancel MANY classes attended by seniors; claiming it costs the college too much money. The figures provided by the administration are being highly disputed. This change will affect hundreds of families for decades to come. Some of the affected classes have been in existence for over forty years. 

Residents of Clackamas County have voted time and time again to approve BOND measures, while the administration has received substantial pay RAISES and have spent MILLIONS on projects but are now canceling many SENIOR CITIZEN CLASSES to compensate for the gross misappropriation of funds. 

Time is of the essence! Sign the petition and help get the word out, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! Email Jeff Shaffer, VP of Finance, Operations & Strategic Partnerships, at Jeff.Shaffer@Clackamas.edu
