[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]

You nailed it. MCPS students and resources are continuously being used to prop up Montgomery College's existence. I'm not a fan, not because I don't think MC shouldn't exist. But the community college should exist on its own merits, not by leaching and replacing with MCPS should be doing.[/quote]
The DE program is one of MC's merits. MCPS shouldn't be doing dual enrollment on it's own because it's not a regionally accredited university and therefore can't issue college credit for classes.[/quote]
