BPCC Chancellor Talks School's Financial Challenges

A lower student population and fewer TOPS dollars from the state are just two of the problems facing Dr. Rick Bateman, Chancellor at Bossier Parish Community College. The highly acclaimed two year school is set to begin the outsourcing of their custodial services and has laid off ten employees, but some financial challenges remain, including a $1.9 million shortfall.

Chancellor Bateman talks with 101.7 / 710 KEEL's Robert J Wright and Erin McCarty about the problems facing one of the state's top community colleges and possible solutions.
