UNBC will be making four English courses available on the World Wide Web in January. The four courses on creative writing, canadian literature, post-colonial literature, and first nations literature mark the first time UNBC has ever offered courses on the Internet.

Registration for all courses is now underway. Prospective students can contact the regional office in Fort St John at 787-6220 for more information.
