What happened
No evidence found that Hartnell College ever operated a distinct metals/jewelry PROGRAM. The institution itself continues to operate and offers a Studio Arts AA-T. Jewelry appears only as one example skill among many in the general Studio Arts description; the live course catalog (verified via the Coursedog catalog and Studio Arts pages) contains ceramics, sculpture, drawing/painting, design, art history, and digital arts but no jewelry/metalsmithing course or certificate. The most likely situation: the archived metals-directory entry reflected an aspirational/marginal listing (the generic catalog "jewelry" mention or a now-defunct continuing-education/community-ed offering), not a standalone academic program. If any informal jewelry class existed pre-2014 (e.g., in community education), it does not appear in current offerings. No program closure, merger, or rename could be documented because no distinct program could be confirmed to have existed in the first place.
