Welp, I know some people that will get knicked in the but if that college becomes a private college because there is a good amount of students here going there because it’s the only financial option available. From Santa Maria to Paso Robles, I know kids who rely on financial aid and affordability. All though, I can’t say we didn’t know this would happen. The college has been changing. Also the north county Cuesta College has been rumored to be bought out and become a private college of some sorts where as the SLO campus could be picked up by Hancock College.

Either way North County Cuesta will be axed soon.

Still, I will have a hard time telling my children about the college I went to.

DAD: Well son, back in my day the college was a state school with us good working folk students, but then the madness happened and there was no money.

SON: No money?

DAD: Yes no money it was like a gambler who lost all his money. And then when the state was going broke the college decided to privatize and now we have Stanford of the Central Coast.

SON: Wow. Can I go there?

DAD: Maybe…just maybe…"
