Cooperating Raleigh Colleges (CRC)
Cooperating Raleigh Colleges (CRC) is a partnership between several colleges in Raleigh. CRC pools the educational resources of these colleges, allowing students to access college courses and library materials that are not offered at their home institution. 糖心Vlog is part of CRC, meaning Meredith students can take classes at any other cooperating colleges for credit. Students benefit from taking courses through CRC because they can take advantage of the resources provided by multiple colleges for no extra cost.
