It is certainly a shame that the Bainbridge College offers Continuing Ed classes such as Beer Tasting 101 and Ghost Hunting 101 (should certainly lend to the values and morals of our community) and yet threatens to discontinue a vital and influential program for our youth (which offers them constructive thinking and lends to their personal value).

Where are the priorities here?

The same place the excuses are.

If you have a program that benefits the community … you carry it forward … where there is a will there is a way.

The college seems to have no trouble always finding a way to build-on for financial benefit … what about the benefit to our children?

We, as citizens, look to Bainbridge College with pride in how far it has come and the benefit it has been to our community and the communities that neighbor us. This is no time to lower their standards.

The EXCEL program needs to continue, there is no discussion needed.

I am sure if they give it some thought, there is a way! The children are counting on it!
