New Hybrid Classes

Posted: 8:02 AM 6/20/2024
The Center for Lifelong Learning is continuing its development of hybrid classes, those that will be both presented in the classroom and streamed via Zoom to the students' device. Normally, students will attend in person in the classroom. The Zoom option will allow those who are unable to attend in person to view the class online while it is being presented in the classroom. For the fall 2024 semester, the Center will present seven courses as hybrid classes. Hybrid classes are marked in the course index.

Kauffman Award Luncheon

Posted: 9:03 AM 5/1/2024
The 2024 Kauffman Rememberance Day and Award luncheon was held April 24 on the campus of USCA. The 2024 Kauffman Award was presented to Carl Fields in recognition of his years of service to the Center of Lifelong Learning and its predecessor.

New Agreement

On January 11, 2024, a ceremony was held in Room 144 of the B&E Building on the campus of USC Aiken to sign a new agreement between the Center for Lifelong Learning and the University of South Carolina Aiken. Under the agreement, the Center becomes a program of the University. Heretofore, the Center was an independent, volunteer-run organization with strong ties to the University.

Students attending the Center's courses will perceive little difference in its courses, programs, and operation. The Center volunteers will continue to develop the curriculum and staff the classes. The primary changes will be behind-the-scenes, reflected in the administration of the organization.

The ceremony was attended by the staff of USCA's Office of External Programs and most of the Board of Directors (Vice-president, Publicity Chair, and Webmaster absent) of the Center. See list of attendees at bottom of page.

Remarks were made by Dr. Daniel Heimmermann, Chancellor of USC Aiken, and Raleigh Daniel, President of the Center for Lifelong Learning. See picture below.

The remarks were followed by formally signing the new agreement.
