<p>You must be joking. UCLA is far superior academically to any community college and even almost every other public university (and most private ones as well). Based on its undergraduate programs alone, it is at least Berkeley's equal and the graduate programs are all first-class. That is why UCLA is world-famous and is widely regarded, along with UC Berkeley, as a flagship campus of the UC system.</p>
