PULLMAN, Wash. — Academic advisers for Washington State University’s Extended Degree Program continue a series of west-side information sessions with appearances in Tacoma on Oct. 20, 21 and 22.

Students completing the EDP program earn a Bachelor of Arts in Social Sciences degree.
Courses are conducted using a variety of technologies including satellite, cable TV, video, and e-mail. Although most students rent course video tapes directly from the university, branch campuses and Learning Center offices around the state have tapes available for check-out or on-site viewing.
