Fall Back Into Learning
Dear neighbors and friends,
As we enter into the fall season, it is apparent that our community and communities across the world
have yearned for in-person connection. From the return of local events like the Utah Shakespeare
Festival and July Jamboree, to the re-engagement in school and campus learning, we are seeing more
than ever how much we value togetherness. With this in mind, Southern Utah University and Southwest
Technical College bring you another exciting lineup of community courses for fall 2021.
We hope you will engage with us in discovering a new hobby like Travel Photography, Pickleball or
Grilling 101. Update your skills for post-pandemic opportunities with courses like Business Leadership,
Excel or a variety of OSHA trainings. You can even save a life by learning CPR, First Aid, AED or
Community Health.
You are invited to take advantage of these opportunities to come together with friends, neighbors, and
colleagues. Our instructors are dedicated to ensuring that you come away better from the experience,
having gained knowledge and connected with others in the process.
SUU and Southwest Tech are dedicated to continuously working together to bring fun and meaningful
opportunities for learning and personal development. We can’t wait to see you on either of our beautiful
campuses and to support you in learning something new.

                                                                      Your Southern Utah
