CITIZENS, please note, Adams State College also offers a new three-credit program in United States History effective this year. It costs only $80 per credit and provides each participant the additional benefit of three social science liberal arts credits for taking on a self-paced Summer research project in United States History. After your Summer 2012 American legion leadership experience, why not check it out this opportunity: HIST 179, "AMERICAN HISTORY AND ITS VETERANS, 1890 THROUGH TODAY". It costs you nothing to investigate, and could add substantial recognition to your personal college prep resume. It's primary qualifier is that you have satisfactorily completed your high school course in United States/American History.

If you decide you want to participate, come back to this link on or after 1 April 2012 and register! Share this history credits opportunity with your high school friends and, of course, your high school History instructor! High School Seniors and previous 'Citizens', meeting the pre-requisites, are eligible immediately! Paid tuition/course participation includes receiving a 'no-cost' five disc History DVD set from the Veterans National Education Program.
