Dean’s Message
ith this catalog, comes the hope and promise of warm weather. By the time the new
summer schedule arrives in your mailbox, the mountains of snow will have melted
and spring will be well under way. Forgotten will be the doldrums of winter, and
all of us will be looking for ways to invigorate ourselves intellectually and physically. It’s time
to shake off the long winter by registering for a class at North Shore Community College. There
are so many choices—carry this catalog with you to your front porch or back deck, pull up a
chair and spend some time looking through your options. If you really would like to learn how
to create a website, now is the time to do so. We are
offering a revamped version of Wordpress and a new
course in creating web sites that will ease the process
for you. And we have a new offering in our personal
services area—if you would like to learn how to be
an aesthetician, register for our Aesthetics summer course taking place at the
PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY

If winter comes, can
spring be far behind?
