Welcome everyone, to TWU! Whether you are brand new or you've done the college thing before, The Office of Lifelong Learning would like to welcome you, and we hope you have a great semester! My name is Allison. I am the Coordinator of Distance Education Communications, and I post information to this blog that is just for you!
If you are reading this, you are probably a distance learner (you have enrolled in at least one course classified as "Internet"), and there are some important announcements and reminders that I need to share.

This blog is where we post information about campus events, policies and any changes in procedures that might affect you. To subscribe, simply enter your email address in the field on the right.
Second, the entire TWU website is undergoing a "face lift." The TWU homepage as well as many other units have already been updated with our new and beautiful look.
