Community classes encourage quest for continual curriculum

One class at Auburn University: $798-$1572 and endless studying. One class via Auburn's Community Outreach Program: $40-$140 and self-generated interest. Finding that one hobby that makes you happy: priceless. "I chose the Lose Weight course because summer is coming up, and it's that time of year to get into shape," said Alexandra Richards, an Auburn resident. "It's only $95, which is less than a gym membership and I've always wanted to see what the Community Outreach Program is all about. I am not a student at Auburn and have a job so this seems like it would be a good way to take classes without actually being enrolled."

"This allows those who represent us to take notice of how important it truly is to abolish this issue."

Spare Change Adds Up for Haiti

People see cast-away pennies on the ground everyday.
