GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP – Want to learn more about how the country was formed or how to protect its environment? The Stockton University Institute for Lifelong Learning will host two mini-courses for the general public in October and November.

Both courses meet once a week for four weeks. All courses are taught by Stockton faculty and held both in person and virtually through Zoom. The cost for each course is $45.

The fall 2021 classes are:

Fridays 2:30 p.m.-3:30 p.m., Oct. 15, 22 & 29 and Nov. 5

Protect our Planet: Problems and Solutions
