I'm not sure whether you didn't know that or if I'm not understanding your point. Community colleges and colleges in general rely on bloating student schedules with unnecessary classes in order to collect more money from those wishing to obtain degrees and certificates. The whole process needs to be streamlined and digitized Sounds like your problem is more with the education industry than community colleges. I personally saw the industry value in every class I took to get my cs undergrad. Most importantly though, the stigma that permeates high schools is "go to college and get a degree or you'll be a fucking loser!" and that thought process needs to go. Colleges are meant to be for the best and brightest, not for every single person. It's disastrously common for a B or C average student to take out exorbitant loans to go to college and fail because they've spent the past decade being told that not going to college makes them worthless. This is exacerbated by the government handing out loans to just about everyone while colleges just laugh it up and pocket the money. I live in an aerospace town. People go to the local jc to get their a&p license or to transfer to a csu to get engineering degree. It sounds like there is an issue with properly educating people on education where you live, that and/or you live in a state that doesn't invest in public education. I'm totally fine with paying 1.5% higher sales tax and not being saddled with student loans for the rest of my life. --- ...Dude, you're a **ing douche.
