Georgia Community

College director Jim Price spoke to the Fayette Metro Kiwanis Club about

the community college that opened two years ago in Union City as an outreach

program of Georgia Military College.

Convenient

for any work schedule, it is open in the daytime, evening and weekends.

Its motto is "Eliminating the traditional excuses for not getting

a college degree."

Price said

that entrance requires a high school diploma or GED and Georgia residents

attending full-time pay $431 for tuition for the past fall quarter. Students

qualifying for the HOPE Scholarship attend tuition-free. The school's

courses will transfer to a four-year college.

Price was a

member of the Kiwanis for many years and served as a past lieutenant governor

in Georgia for the charitable organization.
