[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Virtual middle college and middle college were designed to funnel more students into MC as community college enrollment has been declining.
The goal is to help MC stay afloat more than it is to benefit students [/quote]

Hopefully you’re aware that MC is a nonprofit.[/quote]

If MC provides classes that MCPS won't, or provides them cheaper, and money moves from MCPS budget to MC budget to make MC look better to the Legislature, it's a win-win that defends MC from being shut down for cost-efficiency reasons.[/quote]

MC is not going to get shut down. Who even by, anyway? Good grief.[/quote]

It is not about shutting down. They have declining numbers and the push by MCPS for MC courses is directly linked to boosting MC admissions.
MC professors probably make less than MCPS teachers although I’m not 100% sure of that. The adjuncts certainly make less [/quote]

Of course the adjuncts make less. Adjuncts make less than everyone, everywhere. Similarly, college enrollment is down everywhere. [b]What are the downsides, for anybody, if MCPS students have the possibility of enrolling in MC[/b] during high school? I can't think of any. [/quote]
Ask a college prof how they like teaching 16 year olds sometime.

They prefer the dedicated dual enrollment students to campus party animals. [/quote]

LOL Campus party animals? At MC? You do know all of those kids live at home with their parents, right? There are no campus parties to be had at MC....[/quote]

DP. There might be party animals on campus, though.[/quote]
