[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When did they drop the "community" from Montgomery College?

It's considerd a top community college in Maryland and ranked 17th nationally among more than 650 community colleges. [b]Lol, rankings of CCs??[/b]

Your/your kid's experience at MC?[/quote]

I don’t get it the “lol.” Can you explain why you find this funny?[/quote]

Why exactly are community colleges ranked? Can't anyone take a class at these colleges?[/quote]

IKR

How exactly are [b]colleges[/b] supposed to game rankings if they can't deny admission to more applicants than other schools do???

What's next? Evaluating student outcomes? Instructional quality?!

What's the point of ranking [i]community[/i] colleges? Is a Montgomery county MD resident going to attend Missoula MT community college (not sure if they even have one) because it's higher ranked than Montgomery College?[/quote]
Consider an independent young adult trying to make ends meet in, say, service industry jobs and taking classes at night to get their AA. Maybe they want to know what CC is the best and relocate to that area to take classes. Or they are moving to X state and use those rankings to help determine exactly where to move to.

Just like families do with rankings of public school systems when determining where they want to move for the sake of their children.

You can’t imagine *any* scenarios where ranking community colleges might be helpful to someone? Maybe look for some ways to get outside your bubble. [/quote]
