Students at Hancock College will head to Sacramento on March 22nd. Around 52 students and staff will join thousands of college students on the Capitol to protest budget cuts to education.

Class sections have been reduced, part-time faculty laid off, and counselor hours and support services slashed. Allan Hancock College is facing more than $2 million dollars in budget cuts for the next year. They are already coping with $4.5 million cuts from the current school year and more reductions are likely. You'll hear directly from Hancock students and staff tonight on KSBY News at 5 and 6.
