Meredith Is . . . Always Growing A double-width mobile unit became, over the summer, the temporary home of the new Office of Continuing Education and Special Programs. Through this office there enter many special students who wish to earn degrees after some years away from academia. Many other women — and men too — take enrichment courses to develop hobbies and cultivate special interests. A fast-growing area of special programs in which several seminars are offered is that of career advancement in management. The RSW program is now directed from the new office and its seminars on life direction, decision making, and leadership are spreading to high school students as well as to older women. More than a thousand persons have been touched this year by some aspect of the life-long learning offered under the auspices of Continuing Education and Special Programs.
