Several of us on the list are instructors at MCC :).

You can normally catch me at the PLUG east side meeting ( 2nd Thursday of
the month ) at MCC or at the Free Software Stammtisch ( 3rd Tuesday of the
month ) around the corner from MCC.

As I understand it, MCC and Estrella Mountain Community College in
Avondale are the only two to offer the full degree program. Other colleges
( at least SCC, PVCC and CGCC ) offer some of the classes, but don't have
the full program.
