Welcome to the fall semester! For many of you, welcome back! And for those of you that are new to Fitchburg State, we're glad to have you as a student!![fall_quad](https://blog.fitchburgstate.edu/hs-fs/file-1572216372-jpg/GCE/fall_quad.jpg)

We're so glad that you're here that we'd like to tell you in person! Representatives from the [Office of Graduate and Continuing Education](http://www.fitchburgstate.edu/offices/academic-offices/gce/) will be at McKay each of the first nights of evening classes (September 8-10), helping with directions and giving away HEALTHY SNACKS. Of course they'll be cookies, too! Plus, the [Office of Housing and Residential Services](http://www.fitchburgstate.edu/campus-life/things-you-should-know/housing-and-residential-services/) will also be there to provide parking passes for you. And you can also obtain your [OneCard](http://www.fitchburgstate.edu/offices/technology/onecard/). Feel free to swing by!

And if you ever have a question or comment for us, you can visit our office in room 112 of the Anthony building, or call us at 978-665-3182.

And it's never too late to start planning for the next semester. No... not spring... The winter semester! It's a quick and easy way to complete a class or two over the holiday break - just 2 weeks of classes and you're done. And it doesn't matter where you are to be able to take a winter class, as all winter courses are online.

Again, welcome and welcome back!

Have you ever taken a winter class? What class(es) are you looking for in the winter schedule?
