St. Philip?s impacted by Historically Black College funding cuts

St. Philip?s College is eliminating about 20 staff members as a result of a reduction in Title III funding from the U.S. Department of Education.

Alamo Colleges was recently notified that St. Philip?s funding is being reduced from its current level of $5.4 million to $4.3 million for the upcoming fiscal year.

Title III funding is a federal grant program that provides financial support to Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

As a result, out of 74 staff positions funded by the grant program at St. Philip?s, 20 will be funded directly by Alamo Colleges, 34 will be retained and 20 will no longer be needed.

?We are disappointed to learn that the Title III funding to St. Philip?s College is being reduced,? says Alamo Colleges? Chancellor Dr. Bruce Leslie. ?We value every member of the Alamo Colleges? family, and regret that this significant funding cut reduces the number of staff we can employ for this important program. We are making a significant investment to retain 20 of these positions.?

Affected employees are encouraged to apply for other positions at Alamo Colleges.
