content: That, and in-state community college is 1/4 the price and you get a better education. I'm going to community college now, and it has a huge vocational school aswell. I'm doing IT classes that aren't only certified through the state, but certified through professional organizations, such as Cisco NetAcad. Because of this, I know I'm getting my money's worth. After completing certain classes, I get certification vouchers and I'm pretty much garunteed to pass them, with any effort. On top of the associates degree, which I don't care about as much as the certs. I could study for all the certs on my own, but it is really hard and takes a lot of disapline. With this school, I am actually gowing for free, so it's a win-win for me, but even If I was paying, it might be worth it. I left a 4 year university as a Junior in Business Administration, to go to a community college. Most people don't understand. I'm actually learning a profession, instead of all the bullshit I learned in Business school. Don't get me wrong, business school isn't bad, but 90% of the people have nothing innovative or smart to bring to business. They will all become consultants, snake oil salesmen, etc.
