Campus police blocked the entrances to the building, said Emslie, forcing the 250 or so marchers to circle the building looking for an open door. Protesters eventually pushed aside San Francisco Community College Police Chief Andre Barnes and forced their way inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At that point, said Emslie, \"it was a melee.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campus police were promptly joined by officers from the San Francisco Police Department, who attempted to physically stop the protesters from entering the building. According to Emslie, batons were used to push back the crowd, and there was at least one detention of a student. Emslie said that while that student was being held on the ground in the process of being detained, he was hit by an officer, slamming his head into the concrete.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AFT Local 2121 President and CCSF English teacher Alisa Messer also reported a student being pepper-sprayed and receiving medical attention. \"This has never happened at City College,\" said Messer of the physical altercation with police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There has been no official word on the number of detainees or any charges that may be brought.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, a relative standoff has been reached, with about a dozen students inside the lobby of the administration building conducting a sit-in and the remainder of the protesters holding a sit-in outside the building. There are approximately 20 officers outside, monitoring the crowd, and about that many inside, said Emslie, but the administration has said it is going to release the SFPD officers and continue to oversee the scene with just CCSF officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Supervisor David Campos, who was scheduled to hold a symposium this evening on the CCSF accreditation issues, arrived after the incident and helped to negotiate with both Barnes and school officials. Campos has introduced a resolution calling for the restoration of the City College Board of Trustees and is holding a hearing on the issue at City Hall on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The negotiated standoff will allow the students, both inside and outside, to continue their peaceful sit-ins, but no one else will be allowed to enter the building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group was protesting the scope of powers of \u003ca title=\"Controversy Rages Over Possible Closure of City College of San Francisco\" href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2013/07/10/103173/\" target=\"_blank\">Agrella\u003c/a>, who was appointed after \u003ca title=\"Timeline: CCSF’s Fight to Retain Accreditation\" href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/01/10/timeline-of-ccsfs-accreditation-woes/\" target=\"_blank\">CCSF lost its accreditation last summer\u003c/a>.

The board of governors replaced the trustees with Agrella, who has unilateral power over decisions on the school's rules and regulations.

(Deborah Svoboda/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>City College of San Francisco is facing a heavy loss of students following the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2013/07/03/city-college-accreditation/\">announcement early this month\u003c/a> that the school’s accreditation will be terminated next summer if a review and appeal don’t reverse the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enrollment is \u003ca href=\"http://www.ccsf.edu/NEW/content/dam/Organizational_Assets/Department/Research_Planning_Grants/EnrollmentManagement/DailyEnrollment_Fall2013_72313.pdf\">down 14.9 percent\u003c/a> compared to the same time last year, and with classes starting in just three weeks, instructors across the college are worried their sections will be cut.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s a significant number, and we are doing everything that we can to get the word out that we’re open, accredited and registering,” said Jennifer Aries, a marketing consultant directing the school’s enrollment push.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, the words “OPEN” and “ACCREDITED” are showing up all over San Francisco, emblazoned on a bright red background next to a City College logo. The ads shout to “ENROLL NOW!” on the school’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.ccsf.edu\">website\u003c/a>. They’re in newspapers, on fliers, radio, local cable, social media and even billboards, according to City College’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.ccsf.edu/NEW/en/about-city-college/marketing_publications/media.html\">marketing and public information department\u003c/a>.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the ad campaign hasn’t had much effect yet. The percentage of students lost between last year and this has hovered between 12 and 15 percent since enrollment opened on June 25, meaning the actual number of students lost is growing by the day. As of yesterday there were 3,414 fewer students enrolled compared to the same time last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some classes that are usually full by now have just a few students, said City College faculty union president Alisa Messer, who’s been fielding calls from panicked teachers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All over the campus, there are huge concerns,” she said. Messer and other faculty are desperately recruiting students themselves, quick to point out that City College’s accreditation crisis stems from governance, budgeting, student tracking and administrative issues, and not from quality of education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Messer fears the enrollment drop could have long lasting impacts even if the school manages to overturn its loss of accreditation. She said enrollment was down 15 percent last year, too. City College shed close to 9,000 students between 2010 and 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Not only are we losing students who had learned to count on City College of San Francisco and deserve to have access to that education, but at the same time, we’re losing long-term enrollment,” Messer said. “And what we’ve seen in other places that have had this sort of spiral begin around enrollment is that it’s very hard to get out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco officials are bracing for what a closed or drastically downsized City College would mean for the city. The Board of Supervisors Audit and Oversight Committee is holding a \u003ca href=\"http://sfbos.org/Modules/ShowDocument.aspx?documentid=46141\">hearing today\u003c/a> to discuss what city officials can do to help the college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some college faculty aren’t waiting for government support, though, and they’re taking the enrollment push into their own hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Latin American Studies Department Chair Edgar Torres said he just finished making fliers to post around campus advertising a class he’s worried may get cut. He said classes need to reach a 20-student benchmark before instruction begins to guarantee they will be offered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a misunderstanding, because they’re fearful,” Torres said, adding he’s worried about reaching non-English speaking City College students. “They just see the headlines that we’re closing. Now convincing them that they should stay here is a longer battle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torres said cut classes will likely mean layoffs for part-time instructors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other 2-year colleges are also seeing lower enrollment than last year, indicating not all of City College’s student shortfall is due to its accreditation troubles.
