ECCC

To the snobbier in Emerald City, Emerald City Community College remains “the high school after high school.” However, for those short on time, money, and/or GPA, but who still need some college on their resume, ECCC is nothing less than a godsend.
ECCC’s student body is made up of working people too busy to be full-time students, teenagers who missed out on the scholarship/government aid gravy train to a four-year school, and those needing to rehabilitate a shaky high school academic record. Thus, in this way, ECCC’s campus in Southern Shore is as diverse as any in the city.
Many ECCC students seek two-year associate degrees in various fields, while others attempt to fulfill general education course requirements at a lower cost en route to transferring those credits to a four-year institution like Freedom City University. For their education bargain hunting, ECCC students receive largely competent instruction, highlighted by the occasional geniuses in a particular field temporarily taking on a teaching assignment while finishing their latest books.
