[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two co-workers who went to a community college for the first two years in California and then transferred to a 4-year university and a liberal arts college. I didn't know about the stigma - until each of them qualified their undergraduate degrees by explaining that their first two years were at a community college. It was the way each qualified their undergraduate degree that says they are seen as second-class college graduates. [/quote] I'm one of the OPs who's concerned about the apparent over-hyping of community colleges as a great solution for our families' college funding problems. I think the take-away from the statistics is that a student who starts out at a community college and ends up with a four-year degree is a hero. That's an individual who can climb up a mountain while wearing an anvil and just laugh at the anvil. [/quote]
