Community College Advantages

If you happen to be fortunate enough to live in a community that has a community college you should really make the time in your schedule to check and see what kind of classes they can offer that can help you advance your education and your career. You might be amazed at the different types of courses you can take even on the community college level. I know that I have found some of the courses that are offered and the degree of learning that takes place to be quite impressive. I think that many people who have in the past disregarded the important role that community colleges play in providing an affordable venue for learning will be quite amazed as well.

Community colleges have an undeserved reputation for inferiority when this could not be further from the truth. A good many of the nations nurses are products of community college educations. In many states, the associates degree nursing programs are quite rigorous and provide more clinical experience than most bachelor’s degree nursing programs. This means that students graduating nursing school with an associates degree in nursing are often better prepared to deal with patient care than those who have the ’superior degree’. This by no means is meant to disparage B. S. Nursing students at all. In fact, most hospitals will not even consider you a candidate for an administrative nursing position unless you have the Bachelor’s degree. This is only meant to point out that associates degree programs can be quite competitive and inclusive despite common misconceptions.

Higher Seas And Higher Education

The third summit of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), taking place in Bangkok, Thailand, this week, will cast both direct and indirect light on the wider effects of global warming. IPPC chairman Rajendra Pahcauri commented that he expected ‘heated debate’ about the issue from the large group of scientists and government officials gathered to present their often-conflicting views and findings. This discussion of the report at the centre of the conference – ‘Mitigation of Climate Change’ – will receive its last official airing in Bangkok before the final report is submitted to the meeting of the G8 + 4 in June.

One of Thailand’s top universities sits right along its banks.
