CAMPUS ADMINISTRATION Language classes cut, low numbers

From staff reports

Several foreign language courses such as French, Arabic and Japanese were cancelled due to insufficient student enrollment. WSU requires all courses to have a minimum of 15 stu- dents enrolled for the classes to operate, said Carmen Lugo- Lugo, director of the School of Languages, Cultures and Race, in an email to The Daily Evergreen. The department must comply with the univer- sity’s minimum enrollment mandate, she said, and the department is trying to avoid unnecessary expenses. “We are trying to be fiscally responsible while simultane- ously keeping the needs of stu- dents’ [majors and minors] in mind,” Lugo-Lugo said. Students would have to take another language course or wait for specific classes to be offered again the following semester, she said. In addition to the language BEN SCHUH | THE DAILY EVERGREEN courses, comparative ethnic WSU President Kirk Schulz addresses university finances and future admissions trends while talking studies classes were also can- with reporters at a press conference held Wednesday morning at the Lewis Alumni Centre. celled due to low enrollment.

By Hal Burton The Seattle Times

A plan released Tuesday by the Environmental Protection Agency to scale back federal restrictions on coal-plant emis- sions is unlikely to have a sig- nificant impact in the Pacific Northwest and California, where a power- industry transi- tion to conservation, renewable energy and natural gas is well underway. The new Affordable Clean Energy rule offers states flex- ible guidelines to reduce green- house-gas emissions from coal- fired plants. It replaces a plan laid out by the Obama admin- istration to more aggressively reduce pollution that drives cli- mate change. That plan was put on hold by the U.S. Supreme Court. The rollback is a key part of the Trump administration’s effort to aid an ailing coal industry buffeted by unfavor- able markets and pollution problems. “We are putting our great coal miners back to work,” Trump declared during a Tuesday night rally in Charleston, West Virginia.
