Alternative Class Options for the Adventurous Student
August 24, 2009
If you are wanting to enroll as a full-time student, and enjoy the
college experience of living in student housing then try the Mammoth Campus
of Cerro Coso Community College. It's the best kept secret going!! Who says
you can't combine work, play and college classes? That's what students
enrolled at the Mammoth Campus are doing every day! They are "living
large" in the deluxe apartment-style housing units and furthering their
higher education goals at the adjacent college center .
The Mammoth Campus still has plenty of core class offerings such as Freshman
Composition, Cultural Anthropology, business etc. They also have vocational
type classes still available such as EMT, Child Development and Digital
Video Production. Students at the Mammoth Campus enjoy small class sizes,
individualized attention and beautiful mountain views. Who could resist
that?
Their student housing facility (privately owned and operated by the Mammoth
Lakes Foundation) is the first community college student housing facility to
open in over two decades. Its list of amenities includes a well equipped
gym, beautiful outdoor courtyard with gas BBQ's and flat-screen tv's in
their rooms. Students are able to request a studio or a shared one-bedroom
apartment.
If you want to take college classes close to home, perhaps work at Mammoth
Mountain Ski Area, and enjoy small town influences amid the big outdoor
spaces then Cerro Coso's Eastern Sierra College Center at Mammoth is for
you!
Classes are still available for the Fall 2009 semester, which begins on
August 24. Enroll on-line
