The end of the fall semester at Lincoln Land Community College is around the corner.  Spring registration has begun, and tuition for it is due at the start of December.  That all comes before this term’s finals.  The Taylorville campus is looking to increase its connections with the local community, whether through volunteer work or attracting high school students to its dual credit and college exploration programs. 

The dual credit program is known as College Now.  Elizabeth Fines-Workman, director of LLCC’s Taylorville campus, says students who take part can earn their associate’s degree before their high school diploma. 

Fines-Workman says the nature and setting of this pathway for students makes it an economically friendly pursuit. 

In the more immediate future, students can now register for spring courses.  While registration does not close for just shy of two months, waiting is not wise. 

A small subset of core classes are available at the Taylorville campus.  Fines-Workman says the most popular ones are in nursing and philosophy
