Dassau explained that the position was not grant funded last year. The Board supported it last year and it was in the budget. J. Fortson explained that the third position was asked for to meet a requirement. It was not an internship position it was a teacher position. K. Dassau suggested tabling the motion. There are three positions. The program has been short staffed since September 1, 2008. The Board approved the position last year and now you are saying that we only need two positions. D. Lyman questioned the number of students in the program. K. Goodenough asked what the number of students has to do with the motion. D.
