“Every year, back comes Spring, with nasty little birds yapping their fool heads off and the ground all mucked up with plants. – Dorothy Parker

Community Colleges make college possible for people for whom a four-year college might not be a possibility because of finances, location or family responsibilities Community colleges provide access for people who would otherwise be left out of the college equation for reasons beyond their control,”
Tuition at community colleges is typically half the cost of regional public universities, and a fraction of the cost of attending most private colleges and universities and state flagship universities, Community colleges can offer a cost-effective way to get a jump on a bachelor’s degree cautions, “for transfer to work well, students need to pick their major and four-year university as early as possible after entering community college so they can take courses that will count towards graduation after they transfer.”
Location community college students are more mature adults, not necessarily fresh out of high school. “For adult students especially, it is important to be able to go to school somewhere near their homes,”. That flexibility makes attendance easier for those who need to integrate study time into family and work hours.
Education within reach
Didn’t make A’s in high school? Don’t stress. Students who didn’t get great grades in high school sometimes pursue an education much later. Students such as these “often can get straight A’s,” “Their grades in high school often represented other hardships in their life or a lack of direction or motivation. Community college offers these students a chance to reinvent themselves and show the world how smart they really are.”
New career aspirations
Perhaps you’re 35 and burned out on your career. You want to make a change, but don’t want to spend too much en route to a new profession, or know you need a certificate — not another four-year degree.
Community colleges also have fantastic, focused career and certification programs that are wonderful for people making a career change or who graduate high school and know exactly what they want to do. From training firefighters to training nurses, community colleges teach vital crafts and highly advanced technical skills that make the world run.”
Individualized instruction
At four-year state universities, classrooms offering freshman- and sophomore-year courses can be packed elbow to elbow. Two-year institutions rarely exceed 50 students at maximum, so teachers feel more accessible.
Smaller class sizes in community colleges can give learning a more personalized feel and allow students to ask more questions and learn at their own pace. Students can get to know their instructors as not only teachers, but as mentors who can help them stay in school and succeed.

“Take the best of what is in your heart and share it and use it to consider all of the decisions, opportunities and challenges you face, and call upon that with everyone that you work with and interact with.” – Keanu Reeves
“I would figure out how to take some of the money we spend on things that I don’t personally think are that necessary, and deal with things that I think are more necessary, like helping out our veterans—combat veterans who come back and suffer from PTSD and traumatic brain injuries, the VA and the homeless veterans. Instead of spending $850 million on a hammer that they’re using on Mars right now, think of the good $850 million could do for our suffering veterans here in the United States.” – Max Thieriot
“Health care across the board. I look at our veterans and soldiers and the ultimate sacrifice they make, and I feel like each and every one of them should get free meals, free health care, free insurance, free rent.”- David Boreanaz
“If I were president, I would make a few children’s books required reading for my Congress, because a refresher about how to work together would be nice. We teach kids the right way to do it. But, as adults, I think we often fall out of practice.”- Kristen Bell
I would pass a law that they have lunch and breakfast for children who attend school. For many, that’s the only meal they have. You can’t learn if you’re hungry. And I want teachers and nurses to make more money. They’re the heartbeats of our world.”

“I would surround myself with experts in the fields of all the things that we struggle with now as a species. I would surround myself with people who know the most about each of these things, and not pretend that that person is me. -“Edie Falco
