ivening classes available
through Continuing Studies
By Mary Louise Knapp
Students who are unable to nttn.i
classes during the day because of work or
other commitments may take evening
courses through trie UNL Division of Con-
tinuing Muaies, saia tvening Program
Director Deanna Eversoll.
Eversoll said all UNL colleges offer a
wide variety of courses and that approxi
mately 150 night courses are offered
throughout the year.
"Our ouroose is to serve the non-tradi.
tional part-time student," Eversoll said.
"we arrange rcguuauuu penous anu class
times so mat mey are convenient tor
adults."
Eversoll said adults who wish to take
classes on a part-tune basis often are not
sure that they are going to take a class un
til a few days before it starts because of
work and family commitments.
"Unlike traditional students, adults
cannot commit themselves in March to
take a class that starts in September,"
iie said.
In order to accommodate non-traditional
students, the division provides walk-in
registration through a tabloid printed in
the Lincoln Journal and Star. Registration
is conducted at the Center for Continuing
Studies, 33rd and Holdrege Streets, at the
National Bank of Commerce, 13th and 0
streets, and at several state offices.
Eversoll said that the registration offices
are open in the evenings and over the noon
, hour for greater convenience.
Day students may also register for
classes with the Division of Continuing
Studies, but they must do so at the time
they complete registration for the rest of
their classes, she said.
The newSDrint seher1u1
ceived by traditional students also con
tains a list of continuing studies courses,
she said.
Although there is no limit to the num
ber of credit hours that can be taken
through the division, Eversoll said that
most students take no more than six hours
in any one semester because of the time
limits imposed by evening courses.
Tuition for evening courses is deter
mined by UNL tuition policy, she said.
'The Division of Continuing Studies
does not grant degrees," Eversoll said. Stu
dents may obtain credit toward their de
grec in any college through the division, but
the degree itself comes only from the col
lege, she said.
It is now possible for students to earn a
degree in five courses of study by attend
ing evening courses alone, Eversoll said.
The courses are: geography, general
psychology, political science, sociology
and integrated studies.
The division also provides a non-credit
program for students who are interested in
special studies but who do not wish to earn
college credit for them, Eversoll said. The
courses last from four to six weeks, and
tuition varies with the course.
A statewide program in which students
can get graduate credit at UNL while
attending another college is also avail
able, she said.
Students who take only evening courses
through, the division do not pay student
fees, because they usually do not partici
pate in the activities funded by fees, she
said.
Non-traditional students have a special
organization that coordinates workshops
and provides students with activities and
resources, she said.
