I love community college students. There is something about the demographics of a classroom that makes for all sorts of fun, and yes, even learning. I prefer a classroom full of students who have opinions they are willing to share, a group of respectful disagreements and lots of laughter. I especially love when a student who doesn't usually talk much feels comfortable enough to share their insight.

Okay, a few details:
I attended SRJC myself three or four times until I finally managed to get interested enough in my education to make it through entire semesters without dropping all my classes (or just blowing everything off and earning F's). Statistically speaking, I should never have graduated at all. I'm a first generation college student: neither of my parents went to college. (In fact my father ran off and joined the circus rather than finish high school.) Yet, here I am with three degrees. So much for statistics!
