College and three nearby public libraries. Videocassettes
may be viewed days, evenings, or weekends in
Triton’s Independent Learning Laboratory. A limited
number of sessions are required on campus for orientation
and examinations. An instructor is available to
answer questions and offer additional help. Students
may enroll in media courses until mid-semester.
