Summer Week 2008
June 22 ~ June 27

Summer Week Is Your Ideal Opportunity to:

• Experience the excitement of on-campus learning while spending quality time with faculty and other adult students.
• Immerse yourself in a living/learning environment on-campus by registering as a resident student, living in the residence halls or participate as a commuter student if you prefer.
• Concentrate on a specific course.
• Earn credits toward your degree or teacher certification.
• Participate in special activities and social events as you enjoy Mary Baldwin’s beautiful campus in historic Staunton.
• Earn graduate level credits by enrolling in one of two MAT courses being offered.

Tired of doing it all: working full-time (or part-time), taking care of your house and family ... and pursuing your education? Why not leave that daily routine and those domestic responsibilities behind for six extraordinary days and spend some time with other adult learners this summer in a collegial setting conducive to learning? The latest nationwide trend in vacationing is the "learning vacation” and this is the perfect opportunity to join other interesting adult students from around the state in this special summer course option.

Program at a Glance
Begin your studies early in June, preparing for Summer Week on campus. During Summer Week, you’ll spend about three to four hours each day in class and another three to four hours (or more!) studying and preparing for class together in a community designed to help you create stronger bonds with your college and classmates. Then, after the week (June 22-27) spent on campus, you’ll have until August 8th to complete the remaining course work online or via independent study from home. NEW this year! You can also earn an additional 1/2 semester hour of credit while having fun learning Folk Dance!

In Addition
Residential students enjoy a delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner provided in our gracious dining hall - imagine no cooking or cleaning for a whole week! Daily social events, informal chats in the residence halls, and some time to explore Staunton’s local attractions add fun and festivities to the mix. With special outings planned to locations that make Staunton a must-see tourist destination - as well as enjoyable on-campus activities - you’ll want to return again and again to MBC's Summer Week.

Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to take that special course... fulfill a particular GenEd requirement, complete credits required for teacher licensure... and gain the satisfaction of moving even closer to your degree.
