"I just want to reiterate that I think that you can put all of these components and all of these insights into a particular course at [MnSCU college]. And if I can take the class at [MnSCU college], then that's great. But if my job dictates that I have to work nights or that I have to work through the day or I get transferred to [another MnSCU college], that course that I took here—with those insights—has to transfer to that other MnSCU college. And if I then decide that I have to go to some other place to take courses, then that has to translate, too. I mean, the credits have to transfer. It has to work so that I don't lose all of those credits and all of that time." Central
