Elective Classes

Here’s a list of possible electives we will offer, depending on (1) the current interest of the students, (2) the expertise of our full-time, part-time, and guest staff members (as well as volunteers!), and (3) the materials and supplies at the learning community. We plan to offer two 30-minute classes per term (MW, TTh) at first.
