German artist Käthe Kollwitz, July 8, 1867–April 22, 1945, www.kaethe-kollwitz.de, created an impressive body of work as a graphic artist, painter, printmaker, and sculptor. Recognized as one of the foremost artists of social protest in the 20th century, she led a productive, inspiring life despite suffering terrible hardships under Hitler in World War II. Her quote epitomizes the essence of lifelong learning: cultivating your potential and enjoying the riches of the results.

In the SAGE program, we strive to give you the opportunity to discover the seeds of learning within you, to nurture them, and to let them grow. This summer, consider taking a class that you’ve always thought about, but never tried.

Water the seeds of your curiosity and see what blooms! You may discover a whole new world.

“I want to cultivate the seed that was placed in meuntil the last small twig has grown.” —Käthe Kollwitz

Summer 2018 Sage Program

Important College Registration PolicyThe policy of Prince George’s Community College is to prohibit enrollment in multiple classes meeting at the same time, on the same day and dates. Students must choose the classes they want to attend and make sure there are no conflicts of time/day/date on the schedules. This may mean registering for a different section of a desired class. Teachers are instructed not to allow students to attend classes for which they are not officially registered. Please be careful to register for all classes—but be mindful of others. The SAGE Program is a great value, but please only register for classes that you plan to attend.

Age RestrictionAlthough the SAGE Program permits students under 60 years old to pay tuition and participate in some classes, many senior class sites have an age restriction. Therefore, anyone under the age of 60 wanting to enroll in a SAGE class must first get permission from the class site manager to make sure he or she meets the age participation requirements. Some site limitations are listed in the Site Directory on pages 6–7.
