Community college

Community colleges. Although many people believe that community colleges is not a real college, I disagree with this. Community college is same as university, because you have the same education. Many people get the wrong impressions of how community college is. My whole family went to community college, and they have a decent job. Community college are just as good as other big universities. We need to change this culture that thinks community colleges are not like universities. This…

President Barack Obama has released a proposal of making community college free but it’s very controversial because its just limited to the community colleges. Overall a community college is not that expensive as a CSU, UC, or private. Thus making a community college free would be pointless if the student has to move on to a university where they have to pay. In the article “As He Promotes It, Some Question Obama’s Free Community College Idea” by Joanne Jacobs published in February 23,…

In the coming months millions of students will log on to their schools website and register for classes. Some go to college because it is expected of them. Some do it because they want a good job, while others go to college because they love knowledge. There are vocational schools, community colleges and four year universities. The one thing they all have in common is; they cost money. After paying tuition a student must now pay for books, food, supplies and rent. For many this is too much and…

Today, college education has become important topic in our society. Students are struggling to get into college. Some want to reach their dreams but can't afford the tuition. In this world there are people who are called lower class.They don't have a chance to get a higher education even though they want to. Only a few of those students can attend college or university. In order to improve society, a college education is needed. We need more skilled workers to develop our country. If community…

most high school seniors one of the most important decisions to make is choosing a college or university that could direct them on the right path toward their career goals. Most people say that going to a big, well-known university is the best way toward success, but are they really? There are actually other options that can lead a graduating senior toward success such as community college. Not only is community college more affordable and close to home, but it can also offer the same…

•A Community College is a more accessible way to get an education, when people think of “community” they mostly think within the community and no farther than 2 miles. These schools offer a lot of accessible tools in terms of time, finances and geography- which in the case of most universities it would be hard to get access to these tools. Community colleges do not offer four-year baccalaureate degrees, they usually offer two-year curriculum(s) that typically ends with an associate's degree, and…

Whether or not community college should be free to attend is a widely debated issue. It has the nation split on what choice would benefit the nation. Some say providing tuition free community college would benefit the lower income students of the nation who can't afford the nation’s top rated universities. They would settle for free community college than an expensive four year university. Others believe that providing tuition free community would just create more problems than it solves and…

from high school to college, we all have that assimilation that State Universities hold a much more desirable and more educational values than your local Community College. Wrong! Community Colleges have a great deal of benefits for new incoming college students fresh out of high school. Granted state universities have great educational backgrounds, but a community college can provide those benefits plus more. A State University may have the flashy lifestyle but a Community College is more…

Free community college could lead the country to economic downfall. The “free” deal proposed seems to be far pricier than realized. The idea of free is beautiful. It grabs your attention; whether you are speaking of anything from a coupon to college. Free in theory is a great, but when free comes along with a lower quality of education, pay cuts, an unfixed student dropout rate, and many other issues is it truly free? President Obama stated in an article he wants to bring down the cost of…

ambitious proposal “tuition-free community college” you suggested early this year that you would make two years of community college free and nationwide available to students in the United States. In other words, you wanted to provide millions of Americans more affordable access to a community college education that you called a "ticket to the middle class.” I agree with you that free tuition college will improve individual’s life in many ways. I assume that when college education is free, there…
