We know you’re busy during the day. That’s why our classes are at night with varying start times so that you’ll be able to fit a course or two into your schedule!

URBAN ELECTIVE STUDENT PERK
SYLLABUS NIGHT
For all students who enroll in an URBAN ELECTIVE course, we throw a “SYLLABUS NIGHT” at the beginning of the quarter.
Held at a local brewery with food trucks galore, SYLLABUS NIGHT is a great way for students to get to know their fellow classmates (both in their own course in other courses!)
