Copper Mountain College is a small community college in Joshua Tree, California. The campus is located a small drive away from the downtown area of Joshua Tree where many shops and small restaurants are located. In addition, the campus is very small and has no dorms or housing options. The school only has three sports teams. These teams are men's basketball, women's basketball, and women's volleyball. As you can imagine, the school has almost no student life. This makes it difficult to meet new friends and network. Copper Mountain does have an on campus dining spot called Bruce's Place. This, however, is your only option for food on campus.
With that being said, there are some benefits to Copper Mountain College. The low student to teacher ratio gives creates a better, more personal learning environment for students. The professors at Copper Mountain College are very helpful and care about their students success. I have yet to experience a poor professor at this school.

Copper Mountain College cares! The staff, faculty and fellow students care! They care about the college, the students and the staff/faculty!
There is a foundation that also cares, they work hard to make sure that there is money available for scholarships and work with the students, clubs, and organizations to continue to fund these and help our financially!
Everyone is here for one reason, education. Whether it be yours or theirs, there is a very caring environment on this campus and it makes going to class, studying and succeeding easier, not easy, but easier and you struggle through daily life.

I am currently an on-campus freshman majoring in Criminal Justice. The atmosphere is intimate — I know all of the professors in my department. Tenured professors, experts in their fields. The campus is welcoming and friendly. The outer community is somewhat homogeneous and lacks diversity, but I have developed culturally diverse friendships and experiences on campus. I cannot imagine any other community college providing more integration and support to students. I am proud to be a Fighting Cacti. I highly recommend this school.
