sorry kids, i will make more money than you! and im smarter, have more connections.

get over yourself. a degree is a degree, no one cares where it came from.

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair,
gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your
inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet
spirit which is of great worth in God's sight

wow. ego much? Community Colleges provide great preliminary educations for a lot of people. so they have less student loans than us full time university kids.

I'm banking on that not being entirely true.

yes, they do. and better schools provide better networking and connections

---

not if you want to be a teacher. what connections do you need?

or an accountant? no one cares.

if you want to go on wall street, or right history books or be a mover and a shaker sure. but those people arent attending the average community college anyways..and can afford a 4 year university.

A lot of community colleges have two year plans if you intend to transfer so that you complete all the requirements.

---

CCs are good for saving money before transferring to a four year university. Say you were going to a private four year that cost $35,000/yr. Wouldn't you rather pay less than a third of that the first two years before transferring?

maybe to like a state school, but not much more than that

Nope. At least not in Minnesota, anyway. I was going to do two years at a CC, then transfer to University of St Thomas (a private uni). I would have been able to get all the requirements except maybe one religious studies class that was specific to UST.

Unfortunately I had to drop out due to health issues, but transferring is what I would have done if shit didn't happen.

Not only that, but family connections are great. :)
So when your relatives own a big business, sometimes you feel like not even going to school knowing you will be set to go.
