Registration Continues for Summer and Fall

Believe it or not, summer session starts next week, May 17.  You may still register through the first two class meetings.  You can also continue to register for second summer session through its first two class meetings.  Get in touch today so we can get you signed on. Fall pre-registration with no money due continues.

What's Up for Summer Onsite Classes?

There's a good selection of summer onsite courses in Rockland this year.  Please sign up soon as sometimes low enrolled courses get cancelled if students wait too long.  Amy Peterson Cyr's Interpersonal Communications (COM 102) always fills in the fall and spring so grab it this summer. Human Biology (BIO 100) summer class with Vanessa Richards is a good hands-on way to meet a 4-credit lab science requirement.  Teresa Mayo will teach Interviewing and Counseling (PSY 330) in a very interactive format different from the ITV or online sections. David Farmer's Modern Art (ARH 274) will meet a fine arts requirement and involves trips to the Farnsworth Museum as well as practicing artists' studios. A 5-hour studio art class, Watercolor Painting, with Seth Lester will combine indoor and outdoor painting adventures. General education requirements, College Writing (ENG 101) with Audrey Ennamorati and Introduction to Literature (ENG 102W) with Garrett Vail are necessary to complete most degree requirements. Taking summer courses can accelerate your way to degree completion.  And, there is financial aid for summer.
