I went to CC for radiography… Graduated making 70,000 dollars a year. And I'm 21. No grocery bags in sight.

Listen, community colleges are not just for slackers, I was 3rd in my high school graduating class and I am at CC because the scholarship is FANTASTIC. I am going to school for FREE and getting my books for FREE and not having to stress about money or having a job. So have fun digging yourself in loan debt, snarktastic.

well, snarktastic, I'm not in college yet, but by hearing your pathetically ignorant remarks and stupidity only hightened my want to go to a comunity college.

hope that makes you feel good about yourself.

oh, and, I'm 15 and more mature than you, quite obviously. Does your precious state college have a class on how to grow up and not be such a snotty lil bitch?

I use to think really negative things about CC, but then I woke up and realized what a little sh!t I was being. I'm attending CC right now and I absolutely love it. Let me tell you something 2 years at my CC (4 semesters plus some summer courses) costs me roughly $6,000 The next 2 years at the University I'll be transferring to will cost me roughly $200,000…not to mention grad school. Let me add that up for you if I would of hypothetically went to all 4 years at the University…$500,000. You know,…half a million. So yeah, Snarktastic, I guess being financially smart is really going to lead up to me bagging your groceries.

And somebody has to get my coffee. Snarktastic, you can be my successful secretary and kick yourself for paying so much money for your education when I (who started at CC) am even more successful, with a better education and better grades.

just because you go to a CC doesn't mean you wont be successful. And even if people like you, snarktastic, become successful, it doesn't make your personality any better.

It is, however, extremely ignorant to say that all cc graduates will ever do is end up working at your local grocery store.

For some, university is definitely the best choice. But community college was the best option for me. I'm studying Journalism at a community college right now and I'm glad I'm here. Instead of learning ABOUT Journalism in university for triple the cost, I'm learning HOW Journalism is done and then DOING IT.

It all depends on what you plan to do later on.
