Instructional Arm of the Emeritus College Established
The Emeritus Academy for Continued Learning has been established as the teaching and lecturing arm of the Emeritus College. Lectures and short courses are offered to the community in cooperation with sponsoring organizations. Such an agreement has been forged with the City of Tempe Community Center's Connections program, for whom the Academy will provide five short courses each for the Fall, Winter and Spring terms. These classes will meet five weeks for two-hours each session. Members of the College wishing to participate as instructors are invited to submit the application found on the Emeritus Academy web page.
Intern Appointed to Emeritus Press
The Emeritus College is pleased to announce the appointment of Carsten Jensen as an intern in the Emeritus Press office. Carsten, a National Merit Finalist, is a Sophomore student in the Honors College majoring in Economics. He has extensive experience in desktop publishing and computer graphics, having served, for example, as editor of his high school yearbook and graphics editor of his high school newspaper.
The Emeritus Press is an electronic press which exists to assist members of the Emeritus College in preparing manuscripts in electronic form for self publication or for submission to journals or publishers. This is a free service offered to our membership.
