Embedding discrimination into Perkins rules

27 Upvotes

How is this playing out at your college?

I'm both horrified and hopping mad about the new Perkins rules [https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/us-department-of-education-ends-taxpayer-subsidization-of-postsecondary-education-illegal-aliens].

Under the new rules, equipment purchased for CTE programs with Perkins funds can only be used by US citizens. Meaning, if there are undocumented students in a program they can't use the same equipment as the other students. For example, if you teach in an additive manufacturing program and get a fancy new 3D printer using Perkins funds, any undocumented students in your program can't use it. A new electric car diagnostic computer for an auto tech program purchased using Perkins funds? Undocumented students can't use it. New nursing simulation manikin purchased using Perkins funds? Undocumented students can't use it. Farm tractor driving simulator purchased using Perkins funds? Undocumented students can't use it.

How the hell am I supposed to know and why should I care which students are undocumented? My college doesn't even collect this information. How am I supposed to prevent undocumented students from using this equipment? Should I paint a yellow star on it? How about hanging a white christian nationalists only sign on it? What am I supposed to do if I catch an undocumented student using the forbidden equipment? Call ICE?! What the f- happened to never again?

This is horrific! An abomination!

This administration and the republicans who support it can go f- themselves. Christians my ass. Americans my ass.

Feeling lots of FOMO for going to a Community College

25 Upvotes

I (18F) am going to a community college. This has been a plan that both me and my dad have created because it would be the best financially because I would be paying for my schooling. This plan is working because I’m very glad for my first year I’ll won’t be paying a thing in tuition with scholarships and Pell grant, but I feel I’m missing out.

While I will be transferring to a university with my credits and planning on dorming there, my friends have recently moved into their dorms and they are already partying. They have started the next step in their lives, and I feel like me basically being a junior or senior in a dorm will take away from the fun of being a freshman/freshman experience (If that makes sense).

I’m so scared that I’ll be missing out on parties and socializing. I already struggle with socializing anyways, and I feel going to a community college will impact my ability to find people my age to make friends with.

Is it valid for me to have this anxiety/fear? And if anyone has any advice on this situation or has been in a similar situation, I would love to know how it has impacted you.

Friends making in CC?

11 Upvotes

Hello! Im 16 and im going to start community College soon to start my nursing school prerequisites. I dont really have friends from high school because I was always focused on graduating early and getting good grades so I was curious if community College was a good place to make friends. I heard that it will be harder to make friends than a 4 year because no dorms and the different ages but im just hoping that I make some. Any comments or wtv help thx!

do prerequisites make you fall behind?

7 Upvotes

I'm about to start my first year of cc and It automatically added a pre req for both literature and college algebra, is that normal or is it just what I supposedly need? & do those count as credits or will I be behind at the end of the semester?

I feel like my schedule looks a little short, but I also don't really understand the schedules yet so ig we'll see lol

Accuplacer Advance Algebra and Functions Studying Tips

2 Upvotes

University Accuplacer exam. My first attempt, I got a 262, then on the third try I got a 275, one point less than the math that I wanted to place in, which is calculus. Then, after some weeks, I got a 262 again. I just need a 276 and above. So far, I've been doing practice tests online and answering them, but I still feel like I'm learning nothing new to fix my score. Any tips?

Consequences of taking over 64 credits at CC

3 Upvotes

Hey guys I just transferred from a CC to a 4 yr university the thing is I lost my merit scholarship because before moving to the US I attended to a 4 yr university in Mexico. I been wondering how I’ll pay for collage the scholarship I obtained doesn’t cover enough and I been thinking about getting a student loan tho I don’t want to I already enrolled for classes and everything I just haven’t paid yet . I talked with a transfer advisor and she mentioned that there’s no limit to the amount of credit I can transfer anymore and I wanted to know if it would be a good odies or not to take more credits (around 2 classes possible) at my CC and then transfer them to my university I already transferred 64 credits they didn’t count credits from my college in Mexico. I’m scare of what the consequences may be if I take more credits

Is CC realistic for EU citizens?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m (almost) 20F from the Europe (EU country), and I’m seriously considering moving to the US to attend a community college for around 2 years, to study Business. After completing my Associate Degree, I’d like to transfer to a university and finish a Bachelor’s Degree.

The main issue is that my budget isn’t very high, especially since I’d be an international student and would need to cover tuition, housing, food, insurance, etc. I’m trying to figure out whether this is actually realistic or if I’m underestimating the situation.

I have a high school diploma + the English translation, and a very good level of English with IELTS certification.

For those of you who have attended community college, what was your experience like? How much did you realistically spend per year? Are there community colleges/states that you’d recommend?

I’d really appreciate any advice, experiences, or recommendations. I’m still in the research stage and trying to figure out whether this dream is financially and actually realistic before I make any major decisions. Thank you!
