[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. No, I'm not being paid. As said in the post just above this one, it's the first X I've ever posted on this topic. [/quote] I think you still have to consider the stigma and other factors. A student is surrounded by low-performing students at CC, making it harder for him or her to succeed. Two years of being surrounded by disgruntled students who might have other priorities and family obligations, e.g., kids at home, working inordinate amount of hours to support him/herself or family, takes toll in one's academic aspirations. This is why the graduation rate at top SLACs and Ivies are significantly higher than at state unis. For the same reasons why SLACs/Ivies > State Unis, I thnink State Unis > CC. [/quote]
