the spring semester of EXCO is upon us

"At EXCO, the Experimental College of the Twin Cities, everyone can teach or take classes and all classes are free. EXCOtc is a collective of Experimental Colleges in the Twin Cities that shares visions of a better world, offers free and open classes and is building a community around education for social change."

Registration is open at www.excotc.org

There is an awesome selection of classes this term, including Basic Bike Maintenence, 5-String Banjos, Brazilian Drumming Ensemble, Fermentation Basics, Social Justice Advocacy: Beyond the Nonprofit Structure, and Traditional Chinese Concepts of Health, just to name a few.

I'll be taking Citizen Journalism, Yoga for Women, and Existentialism.

I've had really, really good experiences taking EXCO classes in the past. It's important that communities make education accessible in this way, and it's important for us to utilize these opportunities to learn and grow. I wholeheartedly encourage you to take a look at the full class list and I promise once you try something new, you won't be disappointed.
