Institutions add evening courses, credit for life experience, and broadened curricula to serve aging learners and sustain finances.

Residents oppose over designed county roads and bridges
A letter from residents near Shookstown Road and Emmitsburg voices opposition to a proposed Annandale Road bridge over Tom's Creek. They argue the 14 foot wide road and 40 by 100 foot bridge plus 1,000 feet of widened approach are an excessive, costly, and outdated plan tied to a 1970s master highway layout that no longer fits current land use.
