Here’s your opportunity to get a free college education–at least for a day. Butler County Community College is hosting a Free College Class Day, Saturday, March 27, 2010 at the El Dorado, Andover, Council Grove, and Marion campuses.
The line-up looks really amazing with classes on serious topics like starting and running a business to fun hobby classes like learning to crochet. There will even be classes for kids.
