Power Reading Course for Spring 2011

Register now for the Counseling Center’s POWER READING COURSE

Read what one student had to say about the Power Reading Course:
“I just wanted to say thank you for the speed reading course I took last semester. It's helped so much. I have become more quick in my reading, and, even more importantly, much more effective in retention of what I read and drawing out the important points of what I read. It's a very effective class, and you did a great job teaching it.”
