The Chabot College (Hayward, Calif.) Spectator is having financial troubles. The student government pulled its funding and the administration had to include a line-item to cover the paper's $5,000 printing debt.

But this year, the paper has no means of funding. The college appears to be a community college -- the article mentions a study done about funding for student newspapers at community colleges -- and is therefore not able to generate enough revenue to sustain itself. Other monetary avenues need to be explored.

And the newspaper is at the hands of the student government, which the paper covers. The government has slashed the paper's budget from $12,000 to $3,200 in four years.
