Dear Interested Students, This message includes the attachment this time. =) Welcome to the contact list for Hampshire's first Permaculture Design Course! Ned Phillips-Jones and Alisha Mai Frank will teach the course with Connor Stedman and guest instructors, including Dave Jacke, Jono Neiger, Eric Toensmeier, Benneth Phelps and Charlie Laurel. The course will run from 9:00-5:30 from Monday May 10th to Friday May 21st. See the attached document for a course description, application and registration information. *Please submit your application by May 1st. * The attached document quotes the price of the course at $225-$425 per student. We've recently received news that our FICOM funding isn't secured. If it doesn't come through, we'll need to change our sliding scale to $380-$500 in order to cover course costs and create a small scholarship fund. *Pl**ease request a scholarship application if you expect to be unable to raise a minimum of $380 for your tuition. *We will be in touch with you as soon as we hear about the funding. Please let us know if you'd like to help lower your course fees by negotiating with FICOM! If you'd like to help spread the word, contact Nora Steadman, ers09@hampshire.edu and ask her what you can do. Feel free to forward this message to any friends you have who are interested in taking the course. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions you have. We're thrilled to be offering this course to you, and we look forward to meeting you or connecting more with you in May! Enjoy the spring!
