Colorado Mountain College Summary
Colorado Mountain College (CMC)is a network of seven community college campuses in western Colorado. CMC offers many of the same introductory courses in arts and sciences found at most four-year colleges, but it also has strong outdoor education and wilderness studies courses. Courses in hotel and resort management are also offered, and graduates of these courses help to sustain the winter, and summer, tourism driven economies of Colorado. Some instructors are also students, as the college allows instructors to take a tuition free course for every course they teach (in addition to salary and benefits).
