Bergen community college
My decision to join Bergen community college was far-fetched since I was unsure whether this was the right to do. At first, I was hesitant to make the application; after all, I had been away from high school for a long time and had schooled in a foreign country. However, an interaction with some of my friends who went through the college changed my attitude completely. Most of my graduate friends had gone through the college for two years and formed a solid foundation that informed their present successful career paths. Again, enrolling in the college, I was not so motivated, expected an easy curriculum, and did not expect to have much to learn. A short while after my first semester, I realized how wrong my expectations were and even regret having not enrolled earlier. I have gained core knowledge and motivations for my future academic aspirations. The Bergen college is useful in preparing students to adapt to college and exposes them to vast knowledge in an affordable budget. Therefore, I am in support of Tom Hank’s argument of community colleges offering students the students an interactive environment where they can build a solid foundation for future career aspirations.
In conclusion, I support Tom Hanks’s community colleges’ position being crucial, shaping forces for an individuals’ future life goals. Community colleges allow students to experience various courses and at reduced costs. As in my case, most of the people have unfounded assumptions about community colleges which are wrong. I have come to appreciate the diversity and interactivity of community colleges. I believe that Bergen college is the ideal place to base my future career aspirations. From college, I have learned various vocational skills and enjoyed the passionate professors available. The two years spent in a community college, as Tom Hanks notes, are crucial in shaping a person’s future career path. I am optimistic that the skills and knowledge I gain from Bergen college will be essential in pursuing my future career.
