However, when nonprofits cannot pay them because their organizations lack the funds, workers will eventually need to find employment elsewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people don’t realize that nonprofits are the third largest employer in the country,” Cohen said. “We’re not just a volunteer sector, and so you’ll get all of these ripple effects.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The National Council of Nonprofits, a network of more than 30,000 organizations across the country, was one of several nonprofits that filed a joint suit against Trump’s directive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen said many organizations are still unable to access the federal funding portals they use to request payment despite the judge’s order. Others have successfully put in funding requests only to be informed that their applications are under review. He said organizers and community members feel lost and are hoping that the courts will offer some clarity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our message is pretty simple,” Cohen said. “We are the people who are out there every day doing everything we can to help as many people in communities across the country. We may not be seen, but the effects will be if too much is cut.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/scottshafer\">Scott Shafer\u003c/a> contributed to this report\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

In geoscience, there are maybe 10 academic jobs available, none of which are in my field.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anfinson was among a contingent of geology students and professors holding signs with quips like “It’s not our fault” and “Don’t extinct us” who gathered outside the Sonoma State student center — near the campus ballroom where the town hall was originally set to take place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The timing of the cuts, announced just three days into the spring semester, was another point of frustration for many students, who accused school leaders of waiting until after they had paid tuition to announce that their degree would no longer be available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been a true roller coaster of hope and despair,” said Don Romesburg, the Women and Gender Studies department chair. “The administration made far more sweeping cuts to academics and other programs than any of us anticipated, and they made them at an especially cruel time.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The academic job cycle is from September to December, so if I’m lucky, I might find a job in like 18 months,” continued Romesburg, who was wearing his doctorate graduation regalia and a sign that said “Hired 2008, Awarded SSU highest teaching honor 2014, Fired 2025.” “It’s really devastating materially for all of us as professors. We don’t know where our paychecks are coming from in August.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some students have already signed year-long leases in the area, and others who will want to transfer say the timeline for getting into another California State University campus before next fall has already passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marcus Ziemer, the men’s soccer coach, said the vast majority of the school’s 227 student-athletes have already entered the NCAA transfer portal, but coaches and players with spring seasons are now scrambling to balance continuing to compete while helping players take other campus visits and navigate recruitment negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12024572 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250123_SonomaStateFile_GC-11-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Emiria Salzmann, the women’s soccer coach, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12023999/sonoma-state-players-coaches-blindsided-by-elimination-of-ncaa-athletics\">told KQED last week\u003c/a> that most schools looking for a new coach for a fall sport like soccer have already wrapped up their hiring process for the upcoming season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sonoma State alumni, students and staff dominated the CSU Board of Trustees meeting’s public comment this week, where the school was required to present a balanced budget that was ultimately accepted by the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lianna Hartmour, a 2007 alum of the Women and Gender Studies Department, one of six being shut down, told the trustees that she owed her career to the degree program at Sonoma State.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“WGS [Women and Gender Studies] is a vital career-based major, which is a stated priority for the CSU system,” she said during public comment on Tuesday. “Like many WGS graduates, I got my first job out of college, where I had my WGS internship.

But as a tenured professor, Anfinson didn’t expect to be told he was losing his job in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The day before I received my letter of layoff, I received a letter from the dean of our department encouraging the school to consider my request [to become] a full professor,” he said. “So I just had made it through all levels of review to become a full professor, and the day before essentially being let go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anfinson has two children with his ex-wife in Santa Rosa and is expecting another child the day after his layoff will be made official in July, and now has to consider moving for a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Faculty positions are rare, and they are hard to find and they are hard to get. Personally, it is a tough scenario for my job, my academic career,” he told KQED. “There are no jobs available in the entire country right now. In geoscience, there are maybe 10 academic jobs available, none of which are in my field.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anfinson was among a contingent of geology students and professors holding signs with quips like “It’s not our fault” and “Don’t extinct us” who gathered outside the Sonoma State student center — near the campus ballroom where the town hall was originally set to take place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The timing of the cuts, announced just three days into the spring semester, was another point of frustration for many students, who accused school leaders of waiting until after they had paid tuition to announce that their degree would no longer be available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been a true roller coaster of hope and despair,” said Don Romesburg, the Women and Gender Studies department chair. “The administration made far more sweeping cuts to academics and other programs than any of us anticipated, and they made them at an especially cruel time.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The academic job cycle is from September to December, so if I’m lucky, I might find a job in like 18 months,” continued Romesburg, who was wearing his doctorate graduation regalia and a sign that said “Hired 2008, Awarded SSU highest teaching honor 2014, Fired 2025.” “It’s really devastating materially for all of us as professors. We don’t know where our paychecks are coming from in August.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some students have already signed year-long leases in the area, and others who will want to transfer say the timeline for getting into another California State University campus before next fall has already passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marcus Ziemer, the men’s soccer coach, said the vast majority of the school’s 227 student-athletes have already entered the NCAA transfer portal, but coaches and players with spring seasons are now scrambling to balance continuing to compete while helping players take other campus visits and navigate recruitment negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
