Evergreen Forum is known for its in-depth, six or eight-week courses. But we understand that life can get busy, and it can be hard to fit it all in. This fall, we’re excited to offer more than ever before a selection of shorter, three-to-four-week courses starting at different times throughout fall. Dive into a new topic without long-term commitment. Perfect for those seeking a quick intellectual fix or wanting to explore multiple subjects this fall.
