-- A study skills class for first-year students, students who are returning to college
after a number of years, students who are seeking readmission, and anybody else who
wants to improve their study habits and skills will be presented during the summer
session. GS290X will be taught from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays from June
17 through Aug. 5. For more information about the three-credit course, contact Sara
Jane Coffman, instructor for the past 24 years, at (765) 494-5110. To enroll, contact
the Office of Admissions, (765) 494-1776. Coffman said the course takes a hands-on
approach, with students taking practice tests as a group to improve self-confidence
and speed, watching motivational movies, playing games to work on problem-solving
and vocabulary skills, and reading the novel "Dances With Wolves."
