After an initial orientation session on Sept. 19, classes will be held Tuesday and Thursday mornings from Oct. 1 through Nov. 19.

Applications for this next class will be accepted through Aug. 23. The cost to cover all course materials and fees is $175. Candidates must agree to volunteer at least 40 hours in various activities in the 12 months following the class. The class size will be limited.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
