K-State Evening College increasing class offerings for fall semester
This fall, K-State's Evening College is set to offer classes from more than 20 K-State departments -- around a 25 percent increase in the variety of classes offered during spring, summer and fall Evening College terms in the last year.

The increase will help serve the Evening College student demographic as well as on-campus students.

Aside from providing more class options, Evening College offers students a chance to get ahead in their programs. Many classes are offered in eight-week and 12-week terms, as well as the full 16-week term, so students may be able to fit more classes into their schedules.

Evening College fall term sessions begin Aug. 24 and Oct. 19.

The fall 2009 Evening College course offerings are available at:
