grades will wind up for the year. There

information and registration for summer school courses. Summer school will run as in years
past at the L&N where all students start out working daily on campus and
once you’ve made adequate process you can complete the course from home. Summer school runs from May 29 – June 29 and
costs $10 per course. You may take 2
courses per summer. Other questions?
