NORTHRIDGE : CSUN Cancels Fall Nursing Program
- Share via
In response to dwindling state funds, Cal State Northridge officials said Monday they have canceled a nursing program scheduled to begin in the fall.
The proposed program, which has received a $184,000 corporate donation but no state money, is likely to open in the fall of 1993, said Brian T. Malec, chairman of the school’s health science department. Cal State Northridge President James Cleary has predicted that one-third of the school’s teaching staff will not return for the fall semester because of an expected $12-million budget shortfall.
The nursing program had been expected to hire two full-time and four or five part-time teachers.
