| How old is too old for community college?
Would someone who is almost 30 be too old to take a couple evening courses at a local community college?
Just a simple yes or no with a brief reason will suffice

Never too old. Either you want to learn something new, or want to upgrade your skill set.

Never too old. Life should be a never ending learning classroom. I don't think I'll ever stop going to school! (e.g. cooking classes, languages, etc.)

It's never too late to better yourself. It all comes down to if you've got the desire to do so.

I'd say it's too old when you're 95. Nearly impossible to find pureed food in the cafe.
