Volunteer State Community College — Local services in Gallatin

I currently attend classes at the Livingston and Cookeville campus. This is my 4th semester and for the most part absolutely love it.

She waited until the last week to start her surgery. She was great. Anyways, don't complain. Do the work...

However, because this is a community college, there isn't much of a sense of community within the student body. People often times just come to school and go on their merry way. Thankfully, it isn't too hard to make your own community there. The classes are are set at reasonable prices with decent financial aid availible. I wholeheartedly recommend Vol State to anyone, especially those looking to get to get...
