Lower+Columbia+College


 * Lower Columbia College** has replaced the four self-paced and the four face-to-face pre-college courses with a sequence of 15 one-credit competency modules, adopt a single standards-based textbook for the whole sequence, and create a Math Acheivement Center for student/course support patterned after the college’s successful Learning Commons.
