Hey, it is so hot that you might want to take a summer course from the comfort of your air conditioned home!  There are 17 EasternOnline courses that begin next Monday, July 12.  Use this summer to take courses that satisfy your general education requirements or even a major course.  There are some really appealing online courses such as THE 277  Computerized Drafting (or how to create 3D images) which meets the Tier II Applied Information Technology requirement.    You can meet your Tier II Cultural Perspectives requirement by taking ART 360 American Art online.  BUS 365, Business Report Writing, can be used by BGS students to meet your Writing Intensive requirement.  One specialty course that is very interesting is SWK 369, Exploring Gambling Problems.  It is open to anyone and can be used by BGS Human Services majors for the major concentration.
