There are many ways to take advantage of all the opportunities community college provides. It serves some students as a stepping stone to four-year schools, a chance to obtain a practical skill that leads to a job, or a flexible option for students with families or work commitments. We debunk the outdated stereotype and stigma of community college, and look ahead at the bright future of this pathway to higher education.Guests: Candice Mackey, college counselor at the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies in California, Jen Nuechterlein, college & career counselor at Hunterdon Central Regional High School in New Jersey, and Claudia Leotaud, counselor at Santa Monica College in California. Moderated by NACAC member Eddie Pickett, senior associate dean of admissions and director of recruitment at Pomona College in Claremont, California.
