[NEohioPAL] Don't let just a few votes stop Issue 6

[R.E. BLUSTE via NEohioPAL]

Education levies are always close. Don't let Issue 6 for Cuyahoga Community College be defeated.

	* Over 900,000 people have taken advantage of Tri-C’ affordable tuition by taking a class.(now averaging 30,000+ annually)
	* For the last five years, Tri-C has served more northeast Ohio veterans annually than any other college or university.
	* At the national level, Tri-C has been designated “Leadership level” (top 1%) of all the League of Innovation colleges and universities.
	* A record number of students received diplomas in the spring of ’14.
	* In 2013 alone, more than 1,000 local companies hired Tri-C students or contracted Tri-C to train current workers.
	* Over 1,000 Tri-C grads work at one of northeast Ohio’s Theatres, concert venues, museums, or other presentation spaces.
	* Tri-C ranks #1 in Ohio and #8 in the Nation for the number of associate degrees in registered nursing, nursing administration, nursing research, clinical nursing, and health professionals. More local hospital employees have attended Tri-C than any other school.  
If you want these opportunities to be available to you and others in the future,
then you must voteFOR Issue 6 this Election (by November 4).
Issue 6 is thelevy for Tri-C and is crucial
for making all of these opportunities possible.
 
The county levy accounts for over 40% of the operating
revenue. Without it, drastic cuts will have to be made. The Performing and
Visual Arts Centers will be closed and Arts programs discontinued. The future
of Cuyahoga Community College and its impact on Northeast Ohio will be
determined by the outcome of this vote.
