LCCC to remain two year college amid Kent State plan
Lorain County Community College will stay a two year institution even if Kent State University offers limited upper level classes on its campus. Dr. Max J. Lerner said the possible Elyria Academic Center closing has been blown out of proportion. Kent officials are unsure if they could run the center with only upper division and graduate courses. The move has drawn opposition from groups including the Elyria Board of Education and the Lorain County Medical Society. Lerner noted LCCC offers 24 of 27 courses at KSU's center and offered free space on Abbe Road for selected Kent upper division courses, with four year degrees unlikely via the LCCC-Kent path.
