Course Offerings At A Glance

Welcome

Boy, 2017 is just flying by. Here we are preparing our offerings to you for another semester. We have a good variety of courses available to you. Some new offerings such as: Reflexology, Chinese Calligraphy and some repeated but popular offerings like Poetry and Conversational French. Hope you like them.

As mentioned at the Annual meeting, this year we will be doing online registrations. I understand that not all of you are comfortable using a credit card online, but this is a safe and secure system that has been used for many years with no problems So please consider using this new method of registration. If you are really concerned about security, consider purchasing a prepaid credit card to use. Because we will be doing online registrations, we will no longer have the Lottery. Registrations will be on a “first come, first served” basis. You will be notified as to when the catalog is available online and when registration opens so that you can sign up as soon as you want. We will be having some office hours in the Senior College office to help anyone who does not have a computer or is not sure how to go about signing up for the courses. We ask for your patience during this time of change as we are ALL new to this process.

I want to thank our Staff Liaison, Sandi Croft, for all the assistance she has given and is giving us with this changeover.

Page 1 USM Lewiston-Auburn Senior College

Senior College Colleagues,It has been my pleasure to work with you over the years, and to witness the growth in courses and students in Senior College. The LAC staff, faculty and students welcome back those of you who are already members of our community, and offer a hearty welcome to the new instructors and new students. We are the only public university in the LA area and are part of the intellectual drivers of the economic and social development of this second largest region of Maine. You have always been great collaborators, and we are grateful that you are part of USM LAC.

This year we are also welcoming new community partners to LAC: In June 2017, Literacy Volunteers of Androscoggin moved into Room 116, and Maine Campus Compact will be moving in Fall 2017 in the Community Wing. We are pleased to have you participate in all the services we offer, including our new exercise room—located on first floor across from my office. We look forward to another productive year and to working closely with you. Thank you for choos-ing Senior College at USM’s Lewiston-Auburn College. Stop by to say hello when you can. I am on the first floor, room 132.

Sincerely,Joyce Taylor Gibson, Ph.D
