Cornell's Adult University (CAU) offers weeklong noncredit courses on campus for adults and families during the summer. During the fall, winter, and spring, it offers weekend seminars, weeklong domestic programs, and international study tours. Developed and led by distinguished members of the Cornell faculty, all programs are inspired by the belief that learning never ends and that one of the roles of a great university is to provide a bridge between traditional formal education and informal, noncredit study. For information, write Cornell's Adult University, 626B Thurston Avenue, Ithaca, NY 14850-2490; call 255-6260; e-mail cauinfo@cornell.edu; fax 254-4482; or visit http://www.cau.cornell.edu.
This service provides free information, counseling, and referral to adults who have been out of school for several years and want to resume their education. It also provides information about short courses, workshops, professional updates, and executive programs offered by the university to people inside and outside Cornell. For information, write to Continuing Education, B20 Day Hall, Ithaca, NY 14853-2801; call 255-4987; e-mail cusce@cornell.edu; or fax 255-9697.
Cornell in Washington offers undergraduates the opportunity to combine the strengths of Cornell with all of the best parts of living and learning in Washington, D.C. Students take courses in the fall, spring, or summer for credit, work as externs, and complete substantial research projects, all the while enjoying the rich opportunities available in the nation's capital. For information, write to Cornell in Washington, M101 McGraw Hall, Ithaca, NY 14853-4601; call 255-4090; e-mail cwash@cornell.edu; or visit http://www.ciw.cornell.edu.
Need a flexible schedule? Have a full-time job? Planning to travel during the summer? Don't let any of these stop you from taking a class, earning credits, or learning something new. Wherever you are, whatever your schedule, Cornell distance learning courses are just a keyboard away.
Distance learning courses may include a web-based component, videotapes, and/or CD-ROMs. Students interact with the instructor and other students by phone or e-mail. Most assignments and examinations are completed within a scheduled time frame, just as in on-campus courses, but students have the option of getting a head start on readings and lectures. For information, visit http://www.sce.cornell.edu/dl/.
For faculty members interested in developing credit or noncredit distance learning courses, the school offers a broad range of services, including determining technological needs, resolving copyright issues, creating a marketing plan, and fulfilling administrative duties related to the course. Services are tailored to individual needs and ongoing support is available. Visit http://www.sce.cornell.edu/dl/ to see what's possible.

Can't find the course you want? Take the course independently! You'd like to study cosmic rays and high-energy electromagnetic radiation, protein structure and the nature of enzymatic catalysis, or American and European decorative arts of the Renaissance and the nineteenth century. Although there are no regularly scheduled summer courses in those areas or in other areas in which you may be interested, you may still be able to study your favorite subject. Courses that aren't a part of the regular schedule may be offered for an individual or a group.
If you're interested in such a course and can find a professor willing to supervise your study, pick up the application for individualized study (available on the web at www.summer.cornell.edu or from the Summer Session office). Also, please let the Summer Session office know if there are courses you would like to see offered next summer (call 255-4987 or e-mail cusce@cornell.edu).
