Looking for a course to enroll in before the semester is over? Late start courses from Long Beach City College are now open with a variety to choose from.
Courses that are offered by LBCC spring late start give students the opportunity to get ahead or recover credits before the semester is completely over.
General education and elective courses are open for those who are finishing up their college journey with LBCC or need to add more units to their transcript.
“English courses fulfill a requirement by the end of the semester, as well as they’re important for students who are transferring.” Rodney Rodriguez, who is the Head of the English department, said.
Other than completing major requirements, students can take advantage of exploring their interests.
The classes are being offered on both campuses in-person and online for students.
Nichole Dwyer, a professor for the fashion department who offers a late start class explained how these classes have extended their ability to comply with the demand for enrollment.
“They’re definitely seeing that this is a class that is needed but there is a huge amount of interest in the class and it’s done pretty well in terms of being a fully online course,” Dwyer said.
Intro to fashion is an entry level course for the fashion category and offers knowledge of every aspect of the industry.
Another course being offered is Cultural Anthropology taught by professor Shannon Hodges. The idea of this course is to explore our own culture as well as societies.
“Cultural anthropologists will write their ideas on specific terms, what is gender, what is sex, what is sexuality, and those will differ depending on what society you’re looking at,” Shannon said.
A list of all courses offered for late start can be found on the LBCC Spring schedule.
