Las Positas College surprises many students. The level of attention and personalization helps you succeed in your goals with confidence. The College does its best to provide resources for those returning to school, those who are new to school, and those who have never really liked school. The faculty at Las Positas is one of the best reasons to attend this school. The school de facto motto is, "Students First," and all of the staff and faculty go the extra mile in order for it to be true. No matter the reason you attend the College, the resources are there to help you achieve your education and propel you to your desired destination. The faculty and staff are highly rated, some of which come from world-class universities and also teach at them. They are deeply invested in their students and have visible passion for the subjects they teach. It is truly exciting for students when the faculty that teaches them are just as excited every day of work. The close relationship that Las Positas has with institutions such as a Lawrence lab also makes the College exciting for students to attend and experience.

The overall social culture is not as big as four-year universities, but it has its own community twist and entices students to participate in academic and social causes. College clubs help prepare students for their future by offering incentives, bonding groups, and additional resources.
