For $15 a year, area residents can become a member of North Harris College’s Academy of Lifelong Learning (ALL) and enjoy a wide-variety of classes being offered annually. “Once you become a member, our classes are free or very low cost to ALL participants,” says Carole Wiater, ALL coordinator.
“We are reintroducing NHC’s ALL program to the public and planning a broad range of interesting classes throughout the upcoming year. I know we will have at the minimum 15 offerings, so if you think about it, that comes to $1 per class to learn how to protect yourself from identity theft, master the basics of photography, dance the two-step and more.”
