Bay News 9 recently interviewed Tonjua Williams, Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs, about the decrease in enrollment at SPC. Dr. Williams discussed how more students are taking fewer courses at the college. The economy is an issue impacting enrollment, she said. Since it is a trend the college expects will continue at least for awhile, she said that SPC is working on strategies to reach out to students who often are working more than one job to pay bills and trying to juggle both employment and school. Like other institutions, SPC is offering more certificate programs to help students get back in the workforce as quickly as possible, she said.
