Minding the Gap: Connection Through Education
Abstract
Educational facilities play a large roll in our society today, altering what was once a privilege, to now be a right and obligation to those who seek advancement. The technical two-year colleges, coined “community colleges” serve a critical role to the immediate public they serve, offering an convenient, affordable, option to community members that wish to advance their careers or expertise in a certain field. In this way, the community college can be examined and measured for the extent to which it can serve the community beyond affordability, but further to be a center for which community members may gather and share knowledge and ideas.
