Exploring Rural Jamaica Through Healthcare:
Part of Lock Haven University’s mission is to offer “real-world experiences” to its students. The university’s international emphasis enables students to develop a wider perspective on the world and themselves.

Fall Gardening!
Pennsylvania gardeners usually consider July to be the height of that year’s gardening season, and they are right, but it’s the beginning, not the end. You can learn how to reap the benefits of a second planting, free of frost and early summer’s associated insects and diseases.
You will learn how to get more sweetness and nutrients from your garden. You can join Cheryl Shenkle, Jefferson County Master Gardener coordinator, on Thursday, May 17 at 1 p.m. at the Lock Haven University – Clearfield Academic Building for this informative presentation.
The Clearfield County Life-long Learning Institute has seminars scheduled through June. For a complete listing of classes, please visit the agency’s Web site at www.ccaaa.net or www.lhup.edu/clearfield and click on the “Life-long Learning Institute” link.
