[Nfb-krafters-korner] Classes beginning time

[River Woman]

I am in the same boat as Annette. I am very tired by 8 pm, and have often 
wondered why the classes start so late. But, I wanted to take some classes 
so I buck up and do it even though I am really tired. Starting at 9 pm, I 
would just not be able to do that. Most of the classes I have been in seem 
to run about 1 1/2 to 2 hours in length.

Annette, I think you idea of the recording availability is pretty good. At 
school, when a student misses a lecture, the student can go to the library 
and listen to the lecture on tape - it works. Lynda
