"College Hoodie" Follow Up

During one day at work this guy walked in wearing a t-shirt sporting the text: "community college". I was halfway in between the back room and the main floor, so one step to my left and I was free to laugh my ass off. I am so going to purchase that shirt. I'm also getting the shirt that just says "college", I think they're hilarious.

Here are a couple random quotes I stumbled over during a random search:

"Are you sick of every Tom, Dick, and Shaniqua with a "College" shirt on? Most of the people we've seen with those on wouldn't be fit to hold John Belushi's vomit bucket. Show'em your sense of humor, and career ambition to become an electrician, with this "Community College" shirt.



How many highschool kids wear Belushi's shirt? Tons ... but where are all the big fat party animals? They're in community college learning to be plumbers, locksmiths, meth engineers and more. With our specialized program, you too can earn a degree in partying down, while showing your thrifty side (in the form of a t-shirt). Throw the shirt on, grab some fellow students and get to the party. Before you know it, you'll be doing tequila shots with that grouchy 50 year-old classmate who got laid off from the plant."

....and

"A navy blue t-shirt with block lettering that reads "College". Great for college students, and those who don't subscribe to that whole higher education philosophy. 100% cotton."

-Source

Which leads me to the question: what exactly is "higher education"?

I would guestimate that even though my school is geared toward "higher education", as to say: a continuation from high school, only about ten percent of the students are actually enrolled and participating in the effort.

Hopefully that makes sense.
