Onsite Courses of Special Interest for Spring
Here are few to notice:
ART 113: 3-D Design – Popular instructor and artist, Brandon Lutterman, will be back to teach another section of 3-D Design in Rockland on Fridays from 9 – 2:30. Lutterman and his former Rockland students created wonderful mobiles that hung in our student lounge during the last class. And remember Sierra’s fabulous newsprint ball gown? Brandon is fun and inspiring. If you are not an art student, think of this as a wonderful general elective!
ART 109: Photographic Vision and Digital Discovery – Dee Peppe will be offering this one which counts as a “performing art” on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 7:00 – 9:00PM. Learn great skills to use every day as a proficient photographer!
BIO 114E – Principles of Evolution (descriptive science) – “Ground Breaking!” “Game Changing!” “Revolutionary!” With a scholarly history spanning more than 2000 years, the theory of evolution continues to provide a context for understanding the natural world. Evolutionary theory provides us with another avenue of insight into why humans behave as we do, get ill the way we do, and respond to change the way we do. Recent findings in the molecular biology of evolution are transforming our understanding of diversity, change, and adaptation. Modern application of evolutionary theory has expanded into medicine, agriculture, archaeology, forensics, conservation biology, marketing, psychology, and even computer programming!

CIS 240: Networking Concepts – Faculty member, Mark Goodridge, provides an introduction to telecommunications and networking. Topics include: equipment and protocols, network architecture, public and local networks and data security. These are great skills for any computer students.
