(ACC) – a tool to ensure equal education to the masses and…

… it’s affordable!

But (ACC) wanted to be recognized as a real school & not just a democratic tool
![Page 6: Eff' this College](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042606/5497a006ac79591d2e8b539d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
World War II left classrooms empty because many men were off at war
![Page 7: Eff' this College](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042606/5497a006ac79591d2e8b539d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
(ACC) attracted more students by promising that they would be able to
transfer/hop to a 4-year college
![Page 8: Eff' this College](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042606/5497a006ac79591d2e8b539d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Poor & educationally disadvantaged students
found transferring beneficial
Rich students completely dismissed the idea

However, 4-year colleges didn’t want the
low-status students

But since the war lowered academic enrollment,
4-year colleges were also seeking ways to increase admissions

So, 4-year colleges opened their doors to transfer students and resulted in…

But surprisingly, the (ACC) made transferring challenging …

For the remaining students, community colleges are not transfer schools but terminal & trade schools

In Texas, for example, of every 100
students who enrolled in a public college
Community College
4-year college
Only 2 students
earned their 2 year degrees on time
Only 5 students
earned their 4 year degrees on time

Myth - college is glamorous
Reality - college is insidious

INSPIRATION
The Diverted Dream was the
foundation of this transmedia
presentation.
The book explores the historical
motives and modern consequences
of American community colleges.
But, history lessons can sometimes
be boring.
I ignited interest in the subject by
combining the history lesson with
the high intensity art of Maurizio
Cattelan’s “L.O.V.E” to create an
initial shocking composition. This
was done intentionally to set the
stage for the alarming pretext behind
American community colleges. - Ah’livia
