However, enrollment of at least six stu-
dents must be finalized by Thursday,
Sept. 6, for the Hebrew class to
become a reality, said coordinator Paul
Levine. This class would most likely
meet on Wednesday evenings.
High schoolers who qualify for dual
enrollment use MJI courses as a sub-
stitute for courses offered at their
home high school. In addition, they
receive college credit and their high
schools pay all or a significant part of
their tuition.
