They're colleges without the spirit of colleges and are therefore just high school 2.0.

Boring shit. College is mostly about the experience you get from being somewhere new and meeting new people.

They're for people too dumb to get into a real university.

>>7231358
>>7231382
ITT Dumbfucks, one is trying to justify paying doubling his college loan debt for two years of OMFG THE COLLEGE EXPERIENCE, the other wasted four years of his life in high school acting like a gay fucking nerd trying to work his ass off when alphamales like me can just go to community college for two years and get into all the real universities and more he's talking about.

BTW, DeAnza Community College, transferred to UC Berkeley Haas.

>>7231303

>>7231358
>College is mostly about the experience you get from being somewhere new and meeting new people.
this is why America is turning into a 3rd world shithole, and dragging the rest of the western world down with it.
a university is an EDUCATIONAL facility, not a fucking singles cruise.
you go there to get mad skillz that you then put to use in society.

while the Chinese are pumping out a million fucking engineers, physicists and military officers a year, young Americans are taking arts majors and wondering why the dreams Hollywood told them would come true, aren't.

>>7231604
>>military officers

What the fuck does this have to do with anything. Of course they're going to make more officers, engineers, and physicists, they have five times the population.

I can't really complain, because my local community college is on of the top 3 community colleges in the world (still doesn't make community colleges horrible)

I don't think anybody really hates community colleges, outside of pretentious douchebags. I didn't really have the option of going to community college since I tested out of almost every class that could've been offered by one that was pertinent to a degree. Fuck yeah AP tests.

>>7232265
whats the name of ur cc?

eit

people who fucked up in highschool go there

i failed highschool, did well in CC and made it into UC Berkeley while the kids who got As and Bs went to a shitty state college

there is nothing wrong with a community college

go there for a couple of years, grab your 60 credits, transfer in state with all your credits transferring over, save a shitfuckload of money, get a decent education

It's the best path in the States and no college/university isn't about moving across country from your parents to get drunk and fuck bitches, it's about getting your education and people who do transfer out of state to go to college end up with infinitely more debt in the end to pay off which translates to they're fucking retards

I can do my local community college for 4 semesters or so, transfer to my cities local university which happens to be one of the more respected universities in the nation and there is absolutely no detriment to my education and only a benefit to my pocketbook

The recession is making everyone go to community college. At many community colleges you can work on a transfer degree which basically means you get the same knowledge for a cheaper price and then pay the higher price for the more important classes at the institution that you transfer to.

Many people are out of jobs and can't afford anything but community colleges. Community college is education for those who can't afford the inflated education elsewhere.

>>7232367
b-b-b-but THE COLLEGE EXPERIENCE D;!!!

It's a money saving move. The best school I got into out of High School was UCSB, a pretty good state university, but one not worth the cost.

2 years at a CC for basically nothing and now I'm finishing up my Econ degree at UCLA, a much more prestigious institution, and I saved about 40k.

If you can handle the lack of a social scene, it's a good move for a lot of people, especially in a shitty economy.

lt's like a 'second chance', think of it as senior year +1 and senior year +2. However, you also get to earn tasty college credits. There are also programs in ivies that allow you to take 2 yrs of cc (for those credits) and guarantee you a spot in their class 2 years later, so you save a shitload of money but get the same credits (well, edu is debatable, but those first 2 years aren't insightful or anything they're just basics). I didn't go to CC because I got into a full medical program (meaning instead of competing with other undergrads for med school positions, I get to skip that step and start med school from freshman year, though the number of years remains the same. Not a shitty program btw, there are a couple programs like these and you can guess which ones.) However, if I was doing engineering or physics I would go to CC first and then transfer to a top tier university.

They are for people too poor or too stupid to go to a regular college. they are also attended by alot of older people due to their easy to apply nature. They are also used by people who drop out of regular college. their degree programs last only 2 years, so by many its not actually considered a "college degree"

It's not always so dire though, because there are a group of people who will use them to prove that they can handle college, and eventually transfer to a real one.

>>7232391
>college experience
Invalidates what colleges were originally suppose to be about: education.

>>7232391
Like you're even going to get laid anyway, college or not.

It's a good move if you want to save money and transfer, but it's a horrible idea if you're planning on getting an AA and then doing anything outside of firefighting.

>>7232454


>>Implying you can't get college credits in senior AND junior year.

AP Classes you faggot.

>>7232505
I have a $80k/yo salary at my job, and I only took accounting for two years at a community college, that's it. Also I was doing smaller accounting positions in CC, to gain enough work experience to secure my chances of landing such a high paying job. Brb, escort.

>>7232391
THIS JUST IN
PEOPLE MAY NOT FIND SOMETHING SOMEONE ELSE LIKES ENJOYABLE!

RANT FORTHCOMING! I'm in my final (yay) semester at a community college and I can tell you that mine sucks because ironically there is no community. There are over 6,000 people who go there and it's not even a school on Facebook which is weird. Nobody talks to eachother at all. There's as much talking (close to none) on the first day as there is on the last. I've been going there for nearly 2 years and have made maybe 1 acquaintance and I've already completed over 45 credits and finished 15 different classes. You know how it's always kind of awkward on the first day of school? It's like that all the time every day there. Everyone just shows up, sits there, and leaves. There are virtually no cliques. I can literally attend all my classes on every day for a week and not speak a word to anybody and get by fine. In fact that's probably what most people there do. This probably actually sounds nice to you hermits but some of us appreciate having a social life. This shitty community college is why I miss high school so much. In high school I could walk down the hall between classes and probably get a greeting or a wave from 3 or 4 people every time. At this school I don't even KNOW three or four people (and 5 times as many people go there) and I've been going there for almost 2 years. At the end of each semester, we have to fill out evaluations for the teachers, and every time about half the class has to ask for the teacher's name. I'm not kidding. There's so little communication that the students don't even know the name of the teacher.

>>7232507
>implying you were able to get an AP class in the first place

part 2 of rant!
I have a few friends who go to legit state/private universities where they live on campus and they've all made plenty of friends and acquaintances and are part of social circles, things like that. I think the difference is just living there. They tell me that sometimes everyone on the floor just leaves their doors open and people are just walking in and out of the dorms socializing; real open environment. At community colleges you just show up and leave. It's not like high school where everyone is basically the same age and everyone goes to the school because they live nearby - things like this make it easy to meet new people because you already know you're similar in these aspects and it's easy to meet outside of class due to proximity. At community college I find myself sitting next to a 16 year old post-secondary kid and a woman with a son who is almost my age.

Can't fucking wait to leave. I've liked every school I've gone to previously.

>>7231358
>experience you get from being somewhere new
My community college has 12 campuses spread-out through the entire city, so I'm constantly going to different parts of the town that I've never even heard of. No experience my ass.

>>7232507
IoI, you're joking, right? Unless you take a shitload of AP classes, they're not going to cover 2 whole years of credits. And there are classes in college that aren't offered in high school, plus most of the 2nd year programs aren't covered (ie. Calculus BC is basically just freshman math, very few people will go the distance in HS to take multivariable calc anyhow)

>>7231303
I love community colleges, and so does everyone I know who has attended one. The only real problem is that they don't qualify you for any "white collar" jobs. They're there to either get you a blue collar job (like getting your ASE certification to be an auto mechanic), or cheaply clear your general education requirements for a 4-year degree at a full college/university. In other words they don't have a lot of prestige. They're still wonderfully useful institutions, and one of the best ways for adults to return to education and get new career training.

>>7232507
I took and passed 9 fucking AP classes in high school and still ended up at a CC because you can't get any sort of scholarship or financial aid in this country if you're a white kid from a middle-class home.

Still, it was nice having to do only one year of CC because of the credit I had going in, but holy shit man, what a boring year.

I'm in a program at my community college that lets you take two years of classes and transfer those credits to almost any four year college in the state to continue a four year degree.
Essentially, I'm taking all the general classes, while my tuition is about a quarter of what it would be.

>>7232537
>>implying it is remotely difficult

shit, nigga, I smoked weed every day and slung while doing 2 AP classes a semester.

>>7232570
And by a shitload of AP classes I mean it's not possible for 99.999% of people. hell, I don't even know if it's possible at all. But it might, so I can't say.

SBCCfag here, just going to the best CC in the country, then gonna transfer to UCLA or Berkely (my gpa is good enough that I'll definitely be accepted to both).

How does it feel growing up somewhere else and knowing that you're going to pay more and get a shittier education than me?

>>7232597
>only 2 AP classes
OH LAWDY LAWD!

>>7232605
Admittedly, covering two years is a little insane, but I walked into university with 48 hours of credits from AP and KLEP tests. I took AP exams for classes that I didn't even take, but felt like I knew the material well enough. Plus my university was pretty generous as far as AP testing goes, although they did reject a few classes. A 5 on the Music Theory exam should count for a goddamn Music Appreciation credit, those assholes.

It's just one of those types of colleges that says "HEY LOOK AT ME! I COULDN'T GET INTO A REAL COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY!!!"

>>7232653
>>doesn't know there are 2 semesters per year.

2x2=4

That wasn't AP math.

>>7232653
Seriously, we've got a hard ass here acing his AP Psych and Art History classes. Stand the fuck back!

>>7232656
What university do you go to? That's a bit strange.

The problem with community college is that it's more like vocational tech than an actual education.

CC is for pumping out paralegal secretaries, managers at Best Buy/WaMart/etc, auto mechanics, and so on. You're not going to go to a CC and come out with an electrical engineering degree or ready to head off to law school or something.

Yes, you can go to a real university, dick around, and get an art history degree and some guy who's now installing HVAC units with a CC degree will be doing better than you. But that's not a knock on universities, more "Wow, that guy was a fucking idiot for studying art history."

tl; dr -- Community college is higher education for the poor/stupid. You don't get a real degree.

>>7232660
Unless you end up transferring to a real one.

>>7232670
Respond, bitchass.

>>7232682
I graduated from University of Texas at Arlington. Not a very prestigious school, but it has an amazing faculty. It's considered more of a research university than an educational one, which has it's ups and it's downs.

Community College is college for failures.

College/University is about determining if you're either

A: willing to work for it
B: have some degree of natural talent in knowledge work

I'm in my last term if information systems classes, and I have yet to need to work for more than an hour or two per week outside of class, while I know single moms who brag about spending 20 hours on a final paper to get an 84% B on it while I spend 6 hours the night before on 600mg of caffeine and get a 96% A. Both systems work, both systems will get you the diploma.

This may be different once you're in graduate level courses or some other university. (I dropped out of Oregon State University to go back to CC and finish at Portland State University, and I do remember OSU being harder, but I was also an 18 year old shit head), but all in all when someone tries to hype up the "college experience" they're full of shit. Interacting with people is the goal of primary school, it's why you stay there until you're 18 rather than going to work at 13-14, because all those embarrassing/horrible social experiences are much easier to get out of the way when you see the same group of people every day for 4-6 years (Depending on if you count middle school).

Pro tip: If they ever ask for a book that's available in an audio format, pick it up, ideally off audible.com (Audible is a pain in the ass with shitty DRM, but they've got some of the lowest prices, don't use their shitty player, download itunes and the files should run, and if you're a pro you can just use some recording software to get a DRM free MP3). I'm listening to a shitty e-marketing book that goes on and on about how great blogs are right now.

>>7232727
I meant it's weird that you couldn't get credit for a class that was obviously similar in scope. Oh well, it probably happens a lot.

>>7232717
>implying you can't transfer general ed credits from an accredited cc to an accredited 4-year uni

This is basically what happened to me:

I made the mistake of going to an insanely, highly competitive high school with like a huge percentage of kids getting 5s on AP and IB tests (also it was mostly asian, lol overachiever school). I managed to squeeze out a fucking 88 (KILL ME), but it only managed to get me into U of Michigan. Supposedly my '88' is, when looked at by collleges, supposed to become a 94, which is great, but I didn't get into somewhere that amazing. Also I was running short of money (one parent = lost job near the end). Not even the scholarship was enough.

Two choices: should I go to some state school now, or CC? Well, both are pretty shitty, state is obviously much better than CC, but CC is TONS cheaper.

I went to CC and holy shit, fucking easy as hell, managed to get a full GPA. After I finished I transferred to Johns Hopkins. YES.

college/university degree: not very impressive on a resume, but at least they have a degree
community college degree: even less impressive than a real degree

Community colleges also don't have particularly good/prestigious faculty. Community colleges just have a self-perpetuating stigma about them.

If you're good/smart/successful, you want to go to a university. If you're not, you're stuck with CC. Same goes with teachers. If you have the option between a university and a CC? You definitely go to the university.

>>7232732
Again, you can't really say that when so many people transfer to top level universities from CCs.

>>7232764
U of M is fucking amazing, why wouldn't you want to go there?

>>7232752
Right? I talked the adviser into accepting music theory credits if I could get them, but when I talked to the Music Department, they told me that they didn't accept AP credits and that I would have to take an exam. I took the exam, passed it, went back and got the adviser to put it in. It was all fine for about a week, then the fucking Dean of the Math department gave me a phone call, telling me that he just got off the phone with the Dean of the Music department, and they agreed that that was an unacceptable substitution and I've have to take the class anyways. Shit was balls, but at least I could take History of Jazz instead.

>>7232668
>only took 1 AP class a semester
BOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!

>>7232764
also despite having a scholarship (and it's not much), i still have tons of student loans, so it's not all perfect and I'm still kinda struggling with a job in college. also i have to go the grad school if I want to get anywhere, so... yeah.

>>7232781

You're more likely to get teachers who have worked a real job before at a community college.

It was nice taking business courses from people who have actually managed companies rather than academic douche bags who have spent their entire lives in a classroom. On occasion in a community college you'll get well learned instructors that simply don't like being around the douche bag academics as well.

>>7232784

> so many

Bullshit. Perhaps 1% of people turn their lives around and go on to a top tier university, but most don't go beyond CC, and even less transfer to a sub-par university like Arcadia University or some shit.

>>7232668
Only two per semester? I've known high school kids who managed to get into five. Some whose entire high school schedule were AP classes. You fail dude.

>>7232801
You obviously were not at my level.

Two semesters per school year.

2 AP classes per semester.

Dear dumb neckbeard, how do you feel?

>>7232790
Because Johns Hopkins is clearly better. You guys need to stop assuming people go to CC because they fail at life and couldn't get into a real college.

A degree from UCSB is not as good as one from UCLA, which is why I turned down UCSB, went to CC, and now go to UCLA.

>>7232817

made up statistics are made up

>>7232790
expensive and far away. it was one of my top choices (i got rejected from every single damn ivy) but after i got accepted, shit happened financially. FAFSA is good, but not perfect.

basically people hate community college because ANYONE can go and it's not some super special club like universities are. you can be retarded and go to community college, basically. not saying it's not challenging, but they'll let anyone with money in. you just have to pick the right one to go to.

>>7232823
Block scheduling only allows for 4 periods per day.

So...no.

I was in "university level" classes my junior and senior year of high school. I didn't believe my teachers then when they claimed such "class level." It was pretty much take a page or two of notes of him ranting about psychology and other medical science shit, and that was my grade for the day. Then I got into a real university, and the first two terms of classes were pretty much high school level compared to my 11th and 12th grade. I still don't believe it.

They're dead end institutions. Only the fucking amazing manage to transfer out to top schools, and good for them for making it, but the rest are doomed.

Sorry, but that's the reality of it. They're traps.

>>7232817
Are you fucking kidding me? What CC's are you looking at? Here at SBCC, virtually everyone transfers to a UC (or other top-tier school - my brother went to Brown) after two years.

Seconding this, shit. Many of the AP classes I took in high school had teachers who claimed that college was tough, lots and lots of homework, and professors didn't give a fuck about you, and so on. The reality, as I figured out, was that most classes had relatively light homework loads, with only a few being particularly time-consuming, and that professors tended to be extremely reasonable when discussing grades. I only knew one prof who was a dick about things, most of them were willing to work with you.

I'm graduatin' HS this semester. Going to community because A.) My grades are shit, however a GED and a good SAT score would get me into some state schools. I don't aspire to be a lawyer/doctor/scientist, but B.) I don't have that money and don't fancy going 20k into debt for stuff that I could have taken for 6k at community. The third problem is C.) I don't know what I want out of life, or even what I want to do in the next few years. I'm just lonely and bored.

I love the deans and stuff at "real colleges" give more pats on the back to community college transfers than new students applying straight out of high school.

CCs are about meeting new people for a drug hookup.

College is about thriving on the excitement of everyone else and what they see their life shaping up to be.

That's not to say people go to CC and don't get caught up in the petty weed trade those schools are known for. However, a real college has contagious enthusiasm about life, the future, and prosperity. CCs really can't deliver this and tend to devulge into the high school mentality of friends and passe conversation.

Probably because those transferee's actually has some college experience and has done actual work to get him into a good school. Fresh out of high school are still pretty much children.

Because people are fucking morons. No, not CCfags, people who hate CC.

There are three types of people who go to CCs. The first type are the people who did bad in high school and will end up in retail or middle management. The next type are old people who go to CCs because they're bored and want to learn something. The last type go to CC because they are fucking dirt cheap and the credits transfer.

I saved about $15k going to a CC instead of heading straight to a uni. Oh, the fucking horror of CC. Although, I'm a bit different since I got my CHSPE (GED for smart people) at 16 and got an associates when the rest of my friends were graduating high school and then I transferred to SDSU.

Yep, High School 2.0 with more tests, less busywork.

I've gotten straight A's so far...

I've also been in University but I had to take medical leave, I figured CC would be easier + less expensive.

I go to SCC which is a tiny community college in the middle of nowhere near the NC mountains.

Basically I did it because I'm poor as fuck and really don't care about paying all that money so I can get the REAL COLLEGE EXPERIENCE quite yet. Getting a large chunk of it out of the way to save some cash is fine by me, especially since I did a lot of dicking around in highschool.

As for the "community" in the community college it's awful. It's bloated since everyone is getting their education while they're laid off.. Classes are full of old people, parking is almost non existent, etc. Also everybody who talks to eachother already knew eachother from their highschools so it's impossible to break into their little groups- and fucking everyone is married.

What the fuck is with this block schedule hate? I live in Santa Barbara, and went to a school on block scheduling, and loved it. Block schedule allowed me to finish AP German by sophomore year. It's the way that colleges work, and it's the way that high schools should work. I wouldn't be able to stand taking english, math, and history for an entire year. Ugh.

>>7233135
It limits opportunities high schools are suppose to provide and a waste money.

>>7233169
Thanks for being as vague as the English language allows.

>>7233142
Block scheduling are for when schools start failing and have to cop-out to keep curriculum up, even though it worsens performances and efficiency.

>>7233200
Not true of my high school at all.

They switched to block scheduling 20 years ago, and students, parents, and staff have been fighting to keep it that way ever since. Every year there's rumors of it changing to normal scheduling, but it hasn't yet. And I hope it never does, block scheduling is completely superior to having 6 classes every day for the whole year.

>>7233200
>>Block scheduling are for

maybe this problem could have been settled with block scheduling.

>>7233135
Less credits, lower performances, little opportunities, poor training, little readjustment, etc, etc. You need the "dash" to train kids to constantly keep with the consistencies that job market flushes down it's own throat.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but this is now about block scheduling, the master scheduling, versus archaic "dash" scheduling as it has been called.

Discuss.

>>7233142
>>7233135
Block schedules = less classes, which essentially = less busy students. The only good thing about, to the students, is that they have less homework because of it.

All your high school shit is shit. My school considered switching to block scheduling, but then we ended up winning an award and becoming an "all-american high school" based on our system: 5 classes a day, three trimesters per year. Gives you the opportunity to have 1, 2, or 3 trimester courses. Much superior.

>>7233257
>>7233228

This may be but my old highschool was consistently ranked one of the highest in the nation.

There's no difference between either schedule, really. It's either eight classes a day for a full year or two semesters with four classes each.

>>7233254
Dash schedules keeps you more busy, gives you more work. That's it. Block schedules is pretty much dumbing down the school this way.

What is this "block scheduling" bullshit? Is it a West Coast thing?

Elitism. That's the only reason. This board hates CCs and state universities even though 90% of the Americans on this board go/used to go to CCs and state universities.

They are better than going to a university for the first two years. The credits usually transfer and you save thousands upon thousands of money by not going straight to a university.

>>7233284
Funny thing, a lot of high schools are choosing block schedules because of some "high ranking" schools have them; because they think that it'll magically make their students more successful in class, instead of pulling back that veil and actually investigating why their students are shit to begin with. I guarantee you the failures is a local socioeconomic thing.

fucking mootblox, this comment is original as shit

>>7233228
>Less credits, lower performances, little opportunities, poor training, little readjustment, etc, etc.
Lower performance is NOT true in my case (the city of Santa Barbara). Of the three public high schools here, the block scheduled one is a close second in terms of STAR test scores. Our sports teams are equal with the other two (best football team, actually), we have superior mock trial and music department (in ALL realms of music).

"Less credits" makes no sense at all, since students at my school could take up to 8 classes per year, when at the other schools they would be allowed a maximum 6 (and good luck getting allowed into 6), not counting zero periods (which are offered at all three schools).

>You need the "dash" to train kids to constantly keep with the consistencies that job market flushes down it's own throat.
Makes zero sense considering high schools are training students for college, and colleges are on semester (block) schedules.

90 minute classes instead of 40-60 minute classes.

>colleges are on semester (block) schedules
Not true, college schedules are individual based.

>>7233362
Which means less classes and work for students.

Block scheduling is a private school thing?

>>7233376
But college classes are generally closer to 90 minutes than 50, and generally last a semester.
>>7233392
No.

I have a 4.0 GPA at my Community College and when I graduate I will have guaranteed admission to one of the best tech universities in the United States.

So fuck you spoiled bitches trashing community college.

Block schedule are overrated because schools have been switching to it over this widespread delusion it'll automatically make them better and raise their test scores, completely ignoring the other possibilities why they're low. It was like during the mid 20th century, when everyone thought the comic books were influencing children to commit crimes because they noticed that a lot of kids in juvenile hall read them.

>college classes are 90 minutes
ROFL! The average class time at my college 2.5 hours, for 5-day-a-week schedules.

YOU MUST STUDY THIS MATERIAL TO PASS YOUR TESTS, THEY ARE THE ONLY THINGS THAT MATTER. WHAT? NO WE WILL NOT TEACH YOU HOW TO BE/LIVE AS AN ADULT. MANAGING YOUR FINANCES? LEARNING HOW TO COOK? FUCK THAT LET YOUR PARENTS TEACH YOU. WHAT, YOUR PARENTS DON'T GIVE A FUCK? SUCKS TO BE YOU.~high school

What a shit-tier university. And I've seen community college reading classes where homework was 60% of their grade.

Sounds like Russian schools during the post-Soviet era. "FUCK EVERYTHING ELSE! WE'RE GOING TO TEACH YOUR KIDS BUSINESS AND CAPITALISM SO THAT THE MOTHERLAND CAN KEEP UP WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD ECONOMY!!!"

>>7233571
>TEACH YOUR KIDS BUSINESS AND CAPITALISM
You say that like it's a bad thing.

>>7233603
It's not that teaching them about business and capitalism is bad, the problem is what they neglect to teach you.

>>7233603
It is when you're throwing every other important subject out the window in place of it.

>>7233603
It's Russia. They've fucked up monarchy and Czarship. They've fucked up communism. And now they're fucking up capitalism. You can't trust them to handle anything.

Much like how this thread can't even stick to a fucking topic.
