Registration is underway for a new concept at UCCS, weekend-only classes.<\/p>\n

Carley Ries, director, Campus Wide Extended Studies, said classes will begin Feb. 12 and continue through April 30. Classes will meet from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. or 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays with breaks on March 19 and 26.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is another option for students,\u201d Ries said. \u201cNon-traditional students who work during the week may find Saturday classes better fit their schedules or this could be a way to introduce new members of the greater Colorado Springs community to the campus.\u201d<\/p>\n

The classes, which range from American Sign Language to Understanding Terrorism, are part of a new-to-UCCS \u201cWeekend University\u201d concept. The courses will be offered in a condensed 10-week time frame and completion will count toward degree requirements and financial aid. Administered by Campus Wide Extended Studies, the courses are main campus classes.<\/p>\n
