LLAIC Course Schedule - Spring 2019
Course Description and Course Leader Biography: We urge you to read the course description carefully before
choosing a course.
Available courses: Spring course registration is now closed.
5-week Courses: Note that there are several 5-week courses given
in the first and second half of the semester (designated by 5a and 5b,
respectively, in the course code).
Two-class-period courses count as one: Courses that extend over 2 class periods (such as a film course), count as one course. The fee for a two-period course is only 50% more than for a one-period course.
Wait-list Procedure: As of Spring 2019, LLAIC has a formal wait-list procedure. For details, click here.
