Opinion: Attending community college gave me a second chance I didn't even realize existed [Opinion]
The truth is that community colleges offer anyone the ability to achieve their goals. The fact that anyone can take classes is sometimes enough to give someone the confidence they need to shoot for the stars.
If you had told me when I started that I would be the student body president at Miramar College, I would have laughed at you. I hated talking to people and had never been involved in student government. But I took the leap and stepped out of my comfort zone. As ASG president, I had the opportunity to advocate on behalf of students locally, statewide and nationally to ensure that community colleges like Miramar continue to offer an outstanding education.
