Columbia College

by Matt B on September 6th, 2007

School has started, and kids have stocked up on pencils, crayons, paper, erasers, and numerous other supplies. But school isn’t just for kids. Even adults’ brains need to be fine-tuned and maintained. If you think you’ve lost one too many brain cells from all those summer martinis, maybe it’s time to take a class at Columbia College.

Now, now' stop that. No, you’re not too old. And I’m not talking about hypothetical situations involving Train A and Train B. I’m talking about exploring and giving substance to all those little creative interests lurking in the back of your mind. If those fictional characters you’ve thought up keep begging for a novel to live in, or if you keep noticing scenes that would make a great photo, the teachers at this school would be glad to help you in courses that last anywhere from one day to ten weeks.

You’ll have some great new skills to show off, not to mention some cool new topics to talk about over the soon-to-come winter martinis.
