“Connecticut’s public higher education, especially its community colleges, are a great value and have incredible benefits for students, employers and the community. We prepare students for jobs, which feed back into the state and community.”

Education is a key component to keeping our state on track during this economic crisis. People don’t stop depending on public services just because the Governor is cutting back. In fact, cutting public services is the worst thing that can be done in this economy.
Cutting public services will lead to a downward economic spiral that will take much longer to recover from if we cannot keep our heads above water. It’s time for Governor Rell and the state legislature to throw people a life preserver, not an anchor.
