THREE RIVERS SUMMER TERM OFFERS
FLEXIBLE OPTIONS FOR STUDENTS
Shorter week, convenient locations, low tuition
help students save money, gasoline this summer
Three Rivers Community College has planned its summer classes to meet
the needs of area students and families and help them cope with the
rising price of gasoline.
Three Rivers offers most summer courses during a four-day week, with
classes meeting Monday through Thursday. In addition, Three Rivers
offers summer courses in two shorter four-week terms and a traditional
eight-week summer term. Classes are offered on the campus in Poplar
Bluff and at Three Rivers’ centers and sites throughout Southeast
Missouri.
Summer classes at Three Rivers begin June 2, with an eight-week full summer session and four-week A session.
“We’re trying to be responsive to our students’ needs,” said Executive
Vice President and Vice President of Academic Affairs Dr. Larry
Kimbrow. “Of course, it’s not just the price of gas - almost all costs
related to transportation are on the rise. Most of our Three Rivers’
students commute to campus and centers from throughout Southeast
Missouri. Therefore, if we can offer a schedule so that students can
spend less on commuting, we feel that’s a logical and appropriate thing
to do.”
Kimbrow noted that Three Rivers is offering more than 40 online classes
this summer. Online classes offer the convenience of taking courses
from a student’s home computer or any computer with an Internet
connection. Three Rivers has seen an increase in the popularity and
success of E-learning opportunities that add a new level of ease and
flexibility in completing college studies.
“Three Rivers remains committed to providing the very best learning
opportunities to our area with accessible and affordable prices,”
Kimbrow said. Tuition at Three Rivers
is among the lowest in the state, at just $67 per credit hour for
students in the TRCC taxing district of Butler, Carter, Ripley and
Wayne counties, and $107 for students living outside the district.
Registration for the full summer session and Session B continue through June 3; registration for Session B continues through June 30. Classes in the Full Summer Session will meet June 2 – July 28; Session A will meet June 2 -22; Session B will meet June 30 – July 28.
Students may register on the Three Rivers campus or at centers in Kennett, 901 South By-Pass; Malden,
2203 Narvel Felts Blvd.; Portageville at the University of Missouri
Delta Center, 147 Highway T; and Sikeston, 103 Kathleen Street.
Returning students may also register online using Rapid Reggie on at
the college’s Web site at www.trcc.edu <http://www.trcc.edu> .
