Why is college so stressful? What's so "great" about it?

Community college isn't that great, unless you have an amazing teacher. There's no social life -- no clubs, no sports, no theater activities, no parties. People tend to go to cl and then go home or to work. The students are a mix of ages, so it isn't just a bunch of young people like in high school. I've taken community colleges in a variety of subjects since graduating from college, just for the learning involved. Most of the cles were easy compared to the college I attended. So I'd say it's less stressful than a four-year school where students are anxious about getting through (because of the cost) and pressured to do well because they're headed for grad school.
