Have you always thought about going to (or going back to) college?
You can apply here for the 2022-23 Bard College Clemente Course in the Humanities in Holyoke!
We offer women in Holyoke, Springfield and surrounding towns the chance to jumpstart their educational life and join a friendly community of women who study and talk and write together — about American history, literature, art history, and philosophy, with an emphasis on communication, via the spoken and written word.
To successful applicants, we offer free books and laptops, as well as childcare for babies and toddlers and transportation (from Holyoke, Springfield and Chicopee).
We are planning to be in person this year, but will consider moving to a hybrid format if public health and our student body seem to need a different response. Orientation begins the week of October 4, and classes run until May 16, 2023, with a winter break from December 23, 2022 through January 16, 2023.
Are you interested, but looking for something shorter than a full year? If so, consider applying here for Activism and Black Women Singers: From Spirituals, Soul, Jazz, and Ballads to Hip-Hop and Rap. This class starts September 6, 2022 and runs through October 25 and offers 3 credits through Greenfield Community College.
