 SPRING HEALTH/FITNESS CLASSES ONLINE

  • As an academic department, the Emeritus Institute is obligated to focus on Student Outcomes, not only because they are required by the State of California, but also since they are vital to the integrity of our lifelong learning program.
  • To keep in line with continuing pandemic health concerns, all Spring 2022 Health/Fitness Classes will remain online due to mask requirements, with the exception of Aqua-Cardio/Aquatics Classes.
