Courtesy: Cerritos College Courtesy: Cerritos College With a roof over his head, Anthony Miller's grades rose from D's to B's. But many students aren't so lucky. One told us, 'We're barely making it, barely able to pay rent. There are times where I can't come to school because I don't have bus fare. There are days where I can't pay my phone bill because it all went to rent or food. As soon as that happens, I don't have more money for school supplies, for bus fare — for anything.' At Cerritos College, we listen to our students, and our work is informed by their experiences.
