Financial storm and one that comes around perhaps one every 50 or 100 years. This is the real thing. And much of what went wrong on wall street could be traced back to something called credit default swaps. They were traded in a risky shadow market, and they were at the heart of the financial meltdown. [ticking] it has tentacles as wide as anything ive seen. I think, next to housing, this is the single most important issue in the United States and certainly the largest threat to the u. S. Economy.

And i just want to talk about the reality that a lot of people have been avoiding about city college of San Francisco. As a student ive been part of this city college for two years. I just recently finished all my studies last semester. But, you know, like a lot of things are happening here, you know, there are a lot of problems in city college like we have bathrooms that havent been fixed. We have [speaker not understood]. We also have a lot of resistance in terms like a couple years ago we had our Resource Center being requested by undocumented students and, you know, it was really sad to walk in the halls and see people that werent smiling at me really hurt, a lot of hypocracy. Because at that point at that moment, those people were the ones that were accessing the [speaker not understood] Resource Center and now they are like here trying because theyre losing their jobs, sa
Accountability and has unleashed authority to oversee state funded Community Collegeses. It is also a bureaucratic mess of contradictions. While the Community College faculty staff and administrators are being forced to ban their normal student and campus responsibilities in order to comply with unsubstantiated accjc mandates. When did a Community College become based more on the institutions governance process, which is thank you dedicated by california state laws and less on the quality of education being provided . These are important questions that we believe the state audit will answer and im honored to be joined by [speaker not understood] in this effort to examine whether our Community Colleges and students are being treated fairly, consistently and without bias.
