If I understand you, you’re saying the person was not a student at the community college, but participated in a community-outreach yoga class at the community college.
That makes sense.
People are allowed to be students at a community college AND a university AND work all at the same time.
I THINK that he preferred the ambiance of the community college.
None of yoga classes were ever called "outreach" as they were open to the anyone in the STATE. Foreigners could come too though they had to pay mucho $$$$$.
I once had FOUR Japanese students (straight from Japan) in my class but they came THREE WEEKS after classes began. They SAID that their government was in control of that.
Well, I told them that their government INSULTED us as to think that the first three weeks of ANY class were so UNIMPORTANT as to be skipped.
After that semester I had NO MORE Japanese students.
That was OKEY-DOKEY with me.
