For the Record - Aug. 24, 2012

An A1 story that published Aug. 23 titled “GCC plans budget slash” incorrectly stated that the pay cuts referred to in the story would impact faculty members. The cuts would actually impact classified staff members, which include secretaries, computer technicians and other workers on campus. Also, Saodat Aziskhanova is the chief negotiator for classified employees, not the head of a union, as she was referred to in the story.

An A1 story that published Aug. 23 titled “710 extension routes thinned” mistakenly suggested Assemblyman Mike Gatto (D-Silver Lake) and state Sen. Carol Liu (D-La Cañada Flintridge) favor an extension of the Long Beach (710) to the Foothill (210) Freeway. They oppose an extension.
