The Lifelong Learning Society (LLS), a learning in
retirement
program of Coastal Carolina University's Division of Extended Learning
and Public Services, announces its new course schedule for the 2001
fall semester, which runs from Sept. 13. to Nov. 30.
All individuals interested in learning more about the LLS are
encouraged to attend the Society's Orientation and Open House on
Thursday, Sept. 13, 2001 at 2 p.m. in room 228 of the new H. Dale
Williams Center for Extended Learning, located in Coastal's University
Hall.
LLS is designed for adults who are interested in learning,
exchanging ideas and becoming more socially and culturally interactive.
Members are entitled to special features and benefits of the
university, including use of the campus library, free admission to
athletic events, student rates for events in Wheelwright Auditorium, as
well as special events such as one-day seminars and Lunch and Learn
programs. The LLS was recognized nationally as a model program of its
kind in 1999.
Most LLS classes are held on campus in Coastal's Williams Center
for Extended Learning. Extension sites include locations in Myrtle
Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Little River and Murrells Inlet. There is a
$25 annual membership fee and only LLS members may register for
classes.
Early registration is recommended since many courses have limited
