PLATTSBURGH -- Clinton Community College is sticking to its current schedule, for now at least.

CCC has devoted a considerable amount of human resources and time this summer in reviewing what an optional four-day academic schedule for the college would look like, according to a news release from the college.

As with other schools and colleges around the state and country, the high cost of gas and rising energy prices have prompted administrators to review what options, if any, might be available to them.

In an effort to gain greater insight into how students are impacted by the current situation, members of the college staff plan to discuss the four-day option with this fall's incoming student population.

The feedback received from the students, along with the scheduling data and input from faculty and staff being gathered by the college, should provide a global view of the situation and allow the college to make an informed decision for the future, the release states.

In order to promote efficiency and keep costs down, CCC's administration plans to consider what energy-saving options may be available to the college, including the four-day academic schedule.

To date, no changes to the CCC academic schedule have been made.
