After working daily with Washington Parish officials, we feel the university’s best option is to have all classes in Franklinton.”        Options for those students unable to attend courses in Washington include adjustments of schedules to courses available at the Hammond campus and other off-campus sites, refunds, and possible scheduling of classes in a special eight-week compressed session beginning Oct. 20.         According to Guidroz, distance learning courses may be offered during the special session at the discretion of their academic departments. Departments are presently assessing course schedules and course offering needs.         Additional information can be obtained by calling the Department of Continuing Education at 1-800-256-2771, or by visiting Continuing Education’s Web site at www.selu.edu/continuinged.
