resources available to citizens throughout Southeastern Colorado through
on-campus classes and outreach programs in Prowers, Baca, Kiowa, and Cheyenne
Counties. These classes serve the educational needs of individuals who
are unable to devote themselves to full-time study. They include professional
skills classes, core curriculum classes for academic transfer, avocational
classes, and on/off campus evening/weekend associate degree programs.
