"Get over the idea that only children should spend their time in study. Be a student so long as you still have something to learn, and this will mean all your life."
~ Henry L. Doherty
"Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty."
~ Henry Ford
These two Henrys - one a pioneer oilman, the other a pioneer carmaker - lived in another time and another place ... but I can't help but think, taking the above quotes into consideration, that they would have approved of College Classics at Midland College.
College Classics is perhaps the most interesting of all Midland College classes to area senior citizens. The program, which was initiated in the spring of 1989, includes a series of courses designed especially for local residents who are 50 and older.
Classes are offered through a registration fee of just $25.00 per semester. Payment of this fee entitles the student to enroll in as many classes as he or she chooses. As a special service to the students for which the program is designed, many of the classes are scheduled between 1:00 P.M. and 5:00 P.M. The spring semester consists of three sessions and the fall semester consists of two. Sessions are four weeks in length.
The instructors are recruited from among MC faculty, 'continuing ed' teachers and community volunteers. With their areas of expertise and years of experience, these teachers truly bring to life such subjects as the American Indian, Movies in Review, Museum Masterpieces, History of China and Computer Basics to name a few. The generosity of these instructors allows the college to offer this unique program to a special segment of the community.
The schedule of course for Spring 2011 is now available, and registration begins Tuesday, January 18. Session I begins January 31; Session II begins February 28; and Session III begins April 4. For more information, you can call (432) 685-4724, or visit the links below.
