I think with the advent of online education, community colleges as not seen as necessary. Why go to Hometown Community College when you can attend almost any school online. Personally I'm a big fan of community colleges, they can be area specific and provide actual job training that online schools rally can't provide. They also turn out better students, student's that go to community colleges tend to do better when they go to a 4 year school and finally as someone who has been out of college over 30 years it's a place where I can continually retool at a reasonable price.
