Community delves into the world of Greendale Community College, where sleazy lawyer Jeff has returned to get a degree when the one he has turns out to be invalid. He may believe that the community college losers are beneath him, but he soon finds himself the head of a study group full of misfits all trying to better their lives (or just pass the time).
