MiraCosta College's child development enrollments continue to fascinate me. Though the wages are low and the employers do not seem to want to commit to jobs I cannot offer enough child development courses. As such MiraCosta College supports the proposal.

Question to the over supply, and the lack in north county where the largest production is currently. COE- conclusion was not to recommend. Letters of support do not mention numbers.
