When I drove through town this morning the gasoline prices were at $2.29 per gallon. For most people in Crittenden County commuting to a two or four year institution of higher learning is becoming more of a budgetary issue each day.
According to Mapquest, if you live in Marion, you will travel the following mileage commuting to school each day.
Madisonville Community & Technical School: 93 miles round trip
Henderson Community College: 97.5 miles round trip
West Kentucky Community & Technical School: 110.6 miles round trip
Murray State University: 133.6 miles round trip
When you consider that most students go to school five days a week the resulting dollars going into the gas tank can be quite shocking. Why not consider saving money instead!
YES, it is no big secret that many of the beginning college courses offered by Madisonville Community & Technical School can be taken right here at home. The Crittenden County EdTech Center offers many of the beginning courses through both ITV (interactive television), and from certified teachers who teach here on site.
It's never too early to start thinking about the future. Watch for our full slate of classes coming in the Fall session.
