Comparing North, South and Central Seattle Community College branches. I was wondering besides academics what are the advantages of going to one vs the other two branches? Like is one more "ghetto" than the others, is one more crowded than the other, which has newer/older equipment, does one seem to have better quality teachers.. just overall which has the better atmosphere and student life as far as a community college goes?

I would think Seattle Central would be the better of the three. Its in Capitol Hill, very big and active. But it would SUCK to drive there as there's REALLY limited parking space (and you're not just competing with other students, but other people who work in the area).

I visited a friend who was attending South Seattle CC... and it just seems... dead. I think the fact that its in W. Seattle makes it nice though. (Don't know about N. Seattle CC, though.)

I took some classes at North Seattle. I though some of the facilities were a bit old, and some of the classes were crowded. But the teachers were outstanding, and my fellow students were intelligent and motivated.
Basically, I think the differences in the three is more about academic specialties. I don't think any of them are "ghetto". Seattle Central is certainly the most urban. South Seattle has both a well respected horticulture and culinary arts program, and the campus is pretty.
