Keep an eye out for the newest version of the Continuing Studies catalog, which will be distributed in the Indianapolis Star June 1. Said Amy Warner, executive director of the Community Learning Network: "We’re very excited about the new look of our Continuing Studies catalog, Sign Up. This call-to-action title, coupled with the ability of the noncredit learners to register by mail, fax, phone, or online, creates an attitude of “I can do it!” for our learners. We believe our new Get-Smart (Have-Fun) Catalog design tells them to have fun while learning. As we say at IUPUI, Why Not Both?"
