Over 50 students spent part of their Winter Break on campus, learning about financial planning, investing, and budgeting.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Personal Financial Planning<\/em> has been a Half Block at CC for over ten years and is often an incredibly popular class with a waitlist. The course was offered twice during this year\u2019s Half Block due to high enrollment numbers, with one class taught by Sue Allon \u201981 and the other taught by Dr. Tim Nguyen.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not surprised at all at the course\u2019s popularity, and I\u2019m so, so glad that we are able to offer two sessions,\u201d Allon says. \u201cI think a course like this should be a requirement for every CC student, and I\u2019d be willing to bet that the vast majority of CC parents would agree with me. This course could be labeled \u2018Lifeskills 101.\u2019 Regardless of your major\u2014and I mean that, this course is for every student, not just those planning a business career\u2014the skills Prof. Nguyen and I are going to teach are absolute essentials for managing life after college.\u201d<\/div>\n

Miles Groth \u201908, MAT \u201909 has always learned best outdoors. So, after spending four years at CC doing experiential learning, conducting field work, and studying in the Colorado mountains, it wasn\u2019t a shock for him to establish the Mountain Academy of Arts & Science (MAAS), an outdoor learning program for sixth graders at Ute Pass Elementary School.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I came to study at CC in 2004, my favorite classes were the ones where we went into the field and the learning came to life,\u201d he says. \u201cWhen the opportunity to create the curriculum and vision behind MAAS came up, I jumped at the opportunity to help shape public education in a way that many learners can benefit from.\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Ten years ago, Groth founded the Mountain Academy of Arts & Science, which is a full day and school year program at Ute Pass Elementary School. Students from Manitou Springs School District and surrounding districts can also apply to this public school.<\/div>\n

As with history in general, jazz history can be analyzed, catalogued, and debated. However, as with any art form, if we are to gain a glimpse into the true nature of jazz, we must experience it for ourselves.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

On Friday, March 15 at 5:30 p.m., this interactive event brings jazz history to you \u2018live\u2019 as the Tidal Breeze Creos Trio provides jazz interludes to accompany historical references. Attendees will experience a variety of historical and contemporary jazz styles and jazz improvisation. We will also have a fun time playing Jazz Jeopardy.<\/div>\n

This lecture coincides with the exhibition Clarence Shivers: Experimenting with Form<\/em><\/a>, currently on view at the FAC through July 6.<\/div>\n

Tickets<\/a> are $10 for FAC members, $15 for non-members, and include your first drink.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
