Welcome to The Evergreen Forum, now beginning its second decade. Our program has grown dramatically over the past 11 years, from 40 participants the first semester to over 400 recently. We are an entirely volunteer organization sponsored by the Princeton Senior Resource Center. The Forum provides stimulating daytime study and discussion programs for adults and encourages active participation for those who enjoy learning for its own sake. Our course leaders are drawn from teachers and other professionals, devoted to their subject and wishing to share their enthusiasm.
FALL SESSION DATES:
Course descriptions will be posted in June.
Registration will start July 19
Lottery August 27
Classes begin September 27.
Due to the popularity of The Evergreen Forum and our commitment to small discussion-based classes, we use a lottery system to ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to take a class.
Registration procedure:
1. Designate a 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice on the registration form. Over-subscribed courses will continue to be done by lottery, so please list a second or third choice.
2. First choice classes that are oversubscribed will be placed in lottery. People who do not get their first choice will be placed in their second or third choice if there is space.
3. Designate if you want to take a second course, and what course you want. Second course slots will be filled by lottery after the first round of classes is assigned. You can only take a second course once everyone has been assigned to a first course.
4. Submit payment for only your FIRST choice class with registration. Any additional payments or credits will be made after class assignments have been set. The refund policy remains the same: you can receive a full refund if requested prior to processing your application and a refund (less a $10 processing fee) until the end of the first class session. There is no refund after that point.
The Evergreen Forum maintains a strong commitment to small, participatory classes. Please help us make this experiment successful.
FEES: $60 – Each course unless otherwise noted. Short courses (noted with *) are $40.
We are very excited to celebrate the 11th anniversary year of The Evergreen Forum. We are delighted to have been able to form a community of people who are interested in lifelong learning and look forward to seeing many of you in the upcoming semester.
