A degree from a college or university is often the key that opens doors of opportunity -- doors to a better job and a better life. Without a college degree, many jobs are simply not available.
In the second half of our show, we will hear about a program that offers international students who may not have access to higher education a chance to reach their goals.
But first, we talk a little more about community colleges.
Just as the name states, community colleges are local. So, they are easy to get to. A person does not need to move to a different city to attend a community college program. And the cost of community colleges is much lower than tuition at four-year colleges and universities.
For those people not ready to commit to a four-year program, community college is a great place to start. If you have a full-time job, you can take classes at night. You can experiment with different subjects to figure out what you want to be when you grow up to use a popular expression.
For me, community college was the road that led to a four-year university program, which then led to a scholarship to study in China.
