On a more personal

note, the deans of all five CCSU schools

(Technology, Business, Health Sciences, Arts

& Sciences, New College) have sent more than

1,500 "we miss you" letters to former

students, encouraging them to return for spring

semester and bringing them up to date on the

latest happenings at Clayton State.

Highlighted are the

distance learning program, degrees in Information

Technology and Integrative Studies, and the

University's focus on "seamless"

education that allows certificate holders to

transition to associate degrees, and the bachelor

of applied science degree that allows technical

school graduates to apply their credits towards a

baccalaureate degree.

Availability of

on-line courses also is being touted, since in

areas like health care management, nursing and

integrative studies all required and core courses

are now on-line.

Clayton College

& State University, a member institution of

the University System of Georgia, is in Morrow in

south metro Atlanta.
