A college that primarily offers 2-3 year diploma programs; often refereed to rather condescendingly as junior college. In Canada, Community College is generally known simply as College while four-year degree programs are normally taught only at a University.
Generally, focuses on a more practical, hands on approach rather then a theory heavy approach. Also has much less focus on the academic subjects and more on technical ones (although most programs will have at least some academic subjects but they’re not the focus).
Usually costs far less then a four-year degree program type of college and is often a more practical option for people that don’t want tens of thousands of dollars in debt from student loans.
People tend to look down on community college because of its technical focus rather then academic focus. They seem to feel that anyone not strong academically is stupid. People that think this way seem to forget that not everyone is academically inclined and everyone learns differently (hence, why there are different options for education).
Many go to Community College because they cannot afford the privilege of going (away) to a four-year college or university.
In short, Community College is another option for education that has a technical rather then academic focus.

I went to Community College because I wanted a technical, hands on approach that woulden't leave me tens of thousands on dollars in debt.

Get the voguemug. One crazy Cat; A man of wealth and taste. He used to live The Life Narcotic harder than anyone at UCLA...he has sense been domesticated by "that special someone". If you lived in Courtside, you may have seen him. Up for weeks at a time, totally strung out, never even heard of going to class...Yet he still got better grades than everyone else put together, and graduated in only 5 quarters. Weird. Today, he can be seen crashing recklessly around the 'Wood on his BMW motorcycle or his 'Vette. Women want him. Men want to be him. He will be soon be leaving for Harvard Business School. High Roller, man.
