Deliberation over Brown & Gold Club continues
According to Dennis Day, vice president, Student Success and Engagement, no final decisions have been made regarding the Brown & Gold Club, available to Johnson County residents over the age of 55. Currently the club offers free tuition in credit classes and other benefits for an annual membership fee of $10.
One recommendation, mentioned in the minutes of the May 7 Learning Quality Committee meeting, is to start charging members $25 per credit hour. Day said members will be notified when decisions are finalized.
Kris Dye, former director of Brown & Gold, resigned from the position late last month. Day said he does not know if the position will be filled or if administrators will decide on a different route.
