I like the community college experience. Its in a nice area and is very modern and accepting.
At West LA College I have lived one of the most excited experiences in my life, in my classes are very interesting people from whom I have learned a lot because the diversity of cultures West LA College has is wide so I have learned a little bit from the country of my classmates and professors. My professors and teacher are profesional people whom have inspired me a lot, they talk a lot about the contributions they give to charity or how the support needy people and all of those things have changed a lot my point of view about life, I would like to succeed one day and accomplish my goals in order to be able to help others and contribute to my society. The interaction with other cultures has open my mind a lot and be able to look forward to the future about how globalize our world is right now so I think one day we will become just one nation, one race and we will be able to accept each other no matter where we from or our heritage and that really motivate me to be a better person for my world.
There are many aspects to West Los Angeles that are very incredible. Many of the teachers are very helpful and supportive and always available to help their students. The class sizes are always appropriate for the subject and never too many. There are vending machines and a food truck so there is always food available. There are a couple negatives because there are not many near by stores and resources and there is no housing on campus or off. Housing is a huge issue especially in Los Angeles and there are no real options for students or anyone else.
I love the fact that there aren't many students but as far as resources I would say that WLAC isn't really "for the students."

If I could go back and talk to myself I tell myself to start searching for scholarships as a freshman because paying for school is hard. I would tell myself to take track and field seriously, so I could get a scholarship because I'm actually good at running. I would say hold off on working and run, not to trade in doing a sport and being in clubs for a job. If I coud go back I would tell myself to live, not to be so shy. To get good grades so I could qualify for all the scholarships out there and not have to pass up the ones that say 3.0 gpa only. I would tell myself the transition isn't hard at all rather smooth actually, and not to worry. I would tell myself to prepare now for college and transferring so when the time comes it'll be a breeze.
The best thing at West Los Angeles College is that it's a community in itself. I don't believe that there's one student on campus who feels uncomfortable in their enviroment. There's so much diversity that there's this openess amongst the students; it's very alive and and dominant in a sense and it makes me feel as though I'm at home and surrounded by people who are eager to learn and ready to better themselves and their future through the means of getting an education.
It's like high school just with old people in class with you, and no school bells.
The staff, they are very helpful and pleasent. The classes they offer for me to transfer are available. The school is clean and the moral is good.
The type of person who should not attend West Los Angeles College is a person who is not ready to learn. In order to be in college whether attending a university or even a juinor college like West, one needs to have their mind set and ready to learn at all times. It doesn't matter if a person is merely trying to earn a few class credits or spend two years at West and graduate, college is all about learning and if one keep that perspective in mind than they can succeed in all aspects of their life.
The worst this is the food/eating area. There really isn't one, there is the food truck that comes and the student store. It would be good is there was a cafe' or something.
The kind of person that should attend this school, should be someone that is not looking to go to a four year college right away. A person that is undecided about what kind of career they want to persue. I attended this college knowing what i wanted to major in but my only obstalce was that i could not be a full-time student only. I also have to work full time and take care of my son. West LA was the best decision for me to go a steady pace that gives me time to manage my life .
West Los Angeles has acquired a new state of the art mathmatics building. As students it is our goal to succeed but we need confidence, and higher math is the first step. It challenges the reasoning power to think mathematically about issues thrown about in print media full of incomplete date, ambiguous graphs and hasty generalizations. My school has set a priority to prepare us confidently in a solid foundation of math.
The most frustrating thing about my school would have to be the cost of books. The pricing is ridculous when it comes to buying different books every semester. My only problem is when the school buys your books back, they only give you less than half of what you paid, and thats only if they buy the books back. It hurts even more when you dont recieve financial aid to pay for your books.
