The Georgia Board of Regents offers FREE education to adults 62+ at state colleges and universities. Individuals in this category are eligible to register for classes on a space-available basis without payment of tuition and mandatory fees.
What you need to know about application, attendance, degree-seeking or audit, and life as a "non-traditional" student will be presented.
A break-out session will be offered to discuss, with peers, the pros and cons of going back to school. What I've learned as a gerontologist is that, in addition to lifestyle choices, learning is a key to healthy aging, Carpe Diem!

Experts agree that reading aloud to children plays a key role in their overall growth and development. Educators and caregivers who read aloud to children understand the importance of modeling thinking, providing opportunities to talk about books, and encouraging children to respond to reading with their own thoughts and opinions. This presentation will focus on how to make the most out of storytime by making it engaging and lively. It will address the topics of book choice, planning, interaction with children, and the role of technology in the read-aloud experience.

What is the value of the metal and e-waste lying around your garage, basement, or yard? This course starts with an historical survey regarding scrap recycling and its necessity for survival in Jewish ghettos. The second part examines the two classifications of ferrous vs. non-ferrous waste, and the many classes of non- ferrous material. The third part involves personal application for each student (classifying, pricing, preparing, and bargaining at the scales). The presentation wraps up with an analysis of the future of metals and e-waste recycling.
