Lifelong Learning College - another one of those things that was great that isn't like it used to be. Two-Dollar Tuesdays at Church on the Square, etc. Life goes on.

The catalog arrived in today’s Daily Sun. Lots of interesting classes.

The new catalog is not yet available on-line. However, if you go to the on-line registration page the new course listings and dates are available.

interesting that they are only offering 3 "Beer Tasting" classes Beer Tasting101, 102 and 201

given the average age in TV, you'd think they'd offer some 300 and 400 level classes, as well as some post graduate studies

I'm pretty sure that I could qualify for advance placement...

and the catalog says that it's from 5:30 to 7:30?? It will be fun watching the reaction when the prof says "okay it's 7:30, you're all shut off"

When looking at prices it says Sumter resident or non resident pricing. Does that mean if you are in Lake or Marion county area of villages you pay non resident??? I thought enrichment academy was village resident perk not by county

I have a child with disabilities but I am NOT a huge fan of the blatant misuse of the ADA sometimes and the lawyers who request things like deaf interpreters for every class.

Do NOT cast blame on the developers for this. I think they used common sense.

ADA is a federal law from 1990 if it takes lawyers to make it work then let it be, This program has nothing to do with the Developer. https://www.districtgov.org/departme...linePacket.pdf

Am I seeing this correctly, you don't need to be a Villages resident ? When you create an account it asks if you're a resident or non resident in at least two spots.

That is correct and it was correct of the Lifelong Learning College too.
