I'm a lecturer at a community college, and I've had several students aged 30+ over the years. Almost all of them got an A in my class, because they have a level of maturity and life experience that enables them to handle many of the challenges of college better than the 18-22 crowd". Christopher's post has made people nostalgic, as remebering her own experience, one user commented, "When I was in community college I loved being in class/group projects with students who were 30+, they just bring so much more to the table experience-wise and definitely were so much better to work with than kids my own age".
