School officials say City College will lay off 34 full-time clerical workers, 20 to 30 part-time instructors and 18 part-time counselors starting in January.

The San Francisco Chronicle ( http://bit.ly/ZjobvJ) reports college trustees have also approved a 4.4 percent salary cut for non-union employees, including most administrators, and they are seeking the same cut for faculty members.

The community college also needs an additional 3,000 full- and part-time students to register for the spring semester to avoid losing $6.5 million in state funding.

City College is under pressure to reduce costs to retain its accreditation from the regional Accreditation Commission for Community and Junior Colleges.
