ELECTION 2024

City Times Media covers San Diego City College and its community better than anyone else. And at no time is that more vital than election season.

The entire CTM team is covering the issues you care about most, thanks to the City College Community Agenda.

The City College Community Agenda compiles the responses to a survey completed by students, faculty, staff and community members, available in English and Spanish. It is designed to identify issues and elicit questions that City Times Media reporters use to engage political candidates and focus their election reporting.
