Adults who have been thinking about finishing a bachelor's degree, earning a master's degree, or seeking a professional development certificate, should plan to attend the University Center Open House on Thursday, March 20 from 6 - 8 pm at the University Center's Grayslake facility (1200 University Center Drive). In one visit, they can learn about more than 100 degree and certificate programs, meet university program representatives, and maybe even win some cash.

The University Center offers programs from 19 Illinois colleges and universities designed to enable adult students to further their education without a lengthy or costly commute. Classes meet in the evening and on weekends at University Center facilities in Grayslake and Waukegan, and at Great Lakes Naval Training Center in North Chicago. Other classes meet via online study, eliminating any commute and providing maximum scheduling flexibility. Representatives from the full range of offerings will attend the Open House to provide information and answer questions.

WXLC will be broadcasting live from the Open House, so some lucky students may win some immediate financial aid from the XLC cash machine and get to meet XLC radio personality Jimmy Novak.

Call 847/665-4000 for more information or visit www.ucenter.org to register for the event.
