Class Time

Flagstaff K-12 students are settled into their new classes. And now Northern Arizona University (NAU) and Coconino Community College (CCC) start their Fall 2009 classes tomorrow.

It's an exciting time for students and the community alike. There's a new, yet familiar, energy in the air. College students do that to a town. We're glad to have them back.

When I had to search last week to find out when college classes actually start this semester, I realized how much we are all going to miss our live TV news reporting. In times past, I would have already known all the news of Fall 2008 at NAU and CCC, because I would have seen it on Channel 2 news. It's not going to be easy to keep up with what's happening on campus. And what about sports? How will we know what's coming up and how the teams are doing. We'll have to get that figured out.

But, for now, welcome "home" to all our college students.
