DIGGING DIRT - COMMONS BUILDING BRICK BY BRICK
Progress is steady on the new Outdoor Student Commons! Indeed, campus looks like a giant sandbox, as all asphalt has been removed and much of the lower level grading has been completed Cement “ribbon curbs” now frame the outdoor community space between the buildings. Locations of trees, gardens, paving bricks, and more are now becoming more and more apparent.

FAMILY WEEKEND, THIS WEEKEND
Oct 20-23, 2011
Mosaics to contra dancing, hanging birch bark baskets to family films – and it’s all for the family. AND, it’s this weekend! All courses feature an intergenerational tuition rate, in which the adult pays full price, and each child pays 75% of the full tuition. Ages vary for each course.
