The Free Speech Hotline
cCc goes the “extra mile” to assure your right to free speech that is guaranteed under our constitution. We guard this right zealously. Everyone is allowed to voice their opinion in an a colligate and respectful way.
If you feel your right to free speech is being suppressed, we ask that you contact the Vice President of Academic Affairs at rgee@cccollege.edu. If that does not resolved the issue, feel free to contact the government directly at The Free Speech Hotline: freespeech@ed.gov.
Other Colleges Not Accepting Transfer Credits
If you are having problems with colleges that will not take our credit, please feel free to open a complaint based on religious discrimination since we are TRACS accredited. (But first send the letter below to the college before filing this complaint.) Also mention in your complaint that regional accreditations by law do not exist any longer and that TRACS meets the same standards as their college since both accreditations are CHEA (government) approved. Here is how to file:
The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is pleased to release a technical assistance video, How to File a Complaint, to help parents, families, student, and stakeholders better understand how they can file a complaint with OCR. This resource provides clear and concise direction on how an individual may bring incidents of potential discrimination to the attention of OCR, and includes information on deadlines, ways to provide the required information to OCR, and potential outcomes of complaint investigations. A direct link to the video is available

This video was released through OCR’s Outreach, Prevention, Education, and Non-Discrimination (OPEN) Center as part of a dedicated commitment to providing technical assistance that is high-quality, accurate, thorough, and legally sound.
We expect that this will be a helpful resource for educators, administrators, and stakeholder organizations. Additional information on how OCR resolves complaints of discrimination according to federal law, please visit OCR’s updated case processing manual, released in August, 2020: https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/ocrcpm.pdf (OCR’s updated case processing manual audio version)
Letter to Discriminating College regarding transfering credits:
Students transferring your credits to state colleges that are refusing to accept your credit, please copy and paste this in an email to your credit denying college:
Dear XXX,
First, please remember that the Department of Education (DOE) has removed all regional accreditation restrictions. There are no regional accreditors anymore due their monopoly-like practices.
Second, please remember that the DOE is now actively enforcing any type of religious discrimination and free speech infractions. If you refused to recognize my community college due to its religious accreditation and my practice of free speech by selecting this college, I will have no choice but to report you and your organization to the new Free Speech Hotline (freespeech@ed.gov) regarding this discrimination. Please keep in mind that TRACS is a religious accreditor with full CHEA approval, which is the same group that approves all the former regional accreditor.
Community Christian College (cCc) will provide complete syllabi for all courses for you to review. cCc only offers general education courses. cCc can demonstrate that its professors are highly qualified and can demonstrate that they have much higher credentials than that found at a typical community college.
Please let me know your final decision on transferring my credits to you.
Respectfully submitted,
XXXX
