Possible Opposition

To some, making the trek across campus in an attempt to attend a class that has already been paid for might not seem like such a big deal. I'll admit, complaining about a walk in the cold isn't as big of a deal as I might have made it, but that's not the point. The point is that Salt Lake Community College accepted my money, paid in full, for a class I can hardly make it to because of it's awkward location. There wasn't a discount, or even a heads up for that matter, for taking half of a class and the hassle of getting to it.  Now you might be thinking that it's my fault for having signed up for the class before having looked in to where the class was before I needed to be there for it, but the problem with that is that there wasn't any way to look into where it was. I haven't seen anywhere on the website where it says "this is where you're class will be." There isn't a single map of the campus anywhere on the internet to see where your classes are before trying to get to them.  So, on top of having to walk way further than you should have to, you have to go to the student center first to find a map.  Couldn't they just rearrange class schedules to fit them all in to the real buildings that they already have? Sure, SLCC should be spending it's time making sure they serve classes that are worth going to, but if getting to them is hardly possible, then  what's the point of them even offering the class?
