It was decided that rather than cutting 5% of the students from the program, the City College would keep all students currently enrolled but reduce all the student workers hours by 5%. The majority of students are acting positively to this strategic decision. Jenna Hepner, a student enrolled in the City College work-study program, commented, I agree with the way that the college has decided to handle this financial deficit. Id rather have a job and have less hours than no job at all. City College is an urban two-year institution with approximately 15,000 students. About 20% of the students (3,000 or so) work for the college part-time and receive federally supported work-study.
