We are planning a non credit three week Summer Bridge Program for high school graduates who don't quite meet our entrance requirements. On successful completion they will be admitted to the university. We already have a three hour credit University 1010 and do not wish to replicate that. As well as survival skills, we expect all our students will need work in literacy and many will have to do some math upgrading. Michael Newton Ph.
Success is similar to the remedy to a common cold.
Please post to the list. If they aren't waiting for a heart, liver, lung transplant, they can keep those things turned off. It's rude and disruptive. The only exception I ever made was a paramedic who was in one of my classes and had some periods of time he was on call. This is not a college policy.
