Vashon College offers Vashon 101: A Journey Just Begun

We live in a very special and unique community with an amazingly diverse population. But have you ever been curious about the island itself…it’s geology, ecology and history. Or the culture, the social science and demographics that give insight into the past, present and future of our island and its population.

If so, Vashon College will again offer its signature course, Vashon 101:A Journey Just Begun beginning October 9th through November 13th. This six-session survey course examines the Vashon story from multiple viewpoints presented by a faculty of experts in their respective fields: Joe Meeker, Kevin Freeman, Tom DeVries, Bianca Perla, Bruce Haulman, and Alice Larson.

Vashon 101 participants are engaged and committed students who will seek opportunities to utilize what they’ve learned to the benefit of the the island’s communities.

Classes meet on Tuesdays from 7-9pm at the JT Sheffield Building. Tuition is $150 and includes all course materials plus Images of America: Vashon-Maury Island by Bruce Haulman and Jean Cammon Findlay.

Class size is limited to 30 students. Applications are being accepted now on a first come, first served basis and are available on-line at www.vashoncollege.org or at the KC Library, Vashon Pharmacy, Café Luna, Vashon Bookshop and other locations around town.
