Lifelong Learning Society announces schedule for fall 2002

July 23, 2002

The Lifelong Learning Society (LLS), an adult learning program sponsored by Coastal Carolina University's School of Continuing Studies, announces its new course schedule for the 2002 fall semester, which begins Sept. 16.

LLS is designed for adults who are interested in learning, exchanging ideas and becoming more socially and culturally interactive. Beginning this fall, membership in the Lifelong Learning Society is no longer required for taking courses. Participants may become LLS members by paying the $29 annual membership fee, which allows them to register for all courses and workshops at reduced rates. LLS members also receive special benefits of the university such as free admission to university cultural events, a 10 percent discount at the university bookstore, check-out privileges at Kimbel Library and discount HTC Internet plans. The LLS has been recognized nationally as a model adult learning program.

Most LLS classes are held on campus in Coastal's H. Dale Williams Center for Learning. Extension sites include locations in Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Little River and Murrells Inlet. Mini-workshops, field trips and "Lunch and Learn" seminars are also available.

Early registration is recommended since many courses have limited enrollment. For more information or to enroll, call 349-2665 or visit www.coastal.edu/learn on the Internet.
