<p>MYTH!! I’m sure it varies depending on what classes you’re taking, but I wouldn’t say it’s a “lower grade education” at all. I’ve had instructors with degrees (PhD’s too) from Berkeley, Stanford, Chicago, NYU, Yale, etc. Some teachers teach at so called “real” college AND community college. Furthermore, a lot of comm colleges have honors programs with additional requirements if “regular” is too easy for you.</p>
