Usually you have to pay $500+ for a course in a course that would justify giving you access. They don't just hand them out to anyone who walks in the door without paying.
Have you tried it? Its a community college not a university. Most aren't IDing people as they walk into the door. The public library also does not require classes to use.
Yes, I'm speaking from experience.
I guess that makes 2 cases of anecdotal evidence. I've never had my library ask questions though. To this day I'm still rocking a community college's OS key on my Windows machine.
