LH23 – PLANT TERMINOLOGY – NEEDS ENROLLMENTS! LH23 is a required class for all of our Certificates, and the daytime section – Wednesdays from 1 – 3:15pm (course number 24004) – is wide open for enrollment. The course covers the basic fundamentals of plant morphology including the amazing beauty and diversity of form found in leaves, roots, shoots, flowers, and fruits. Spring is probably the best time to take this course because of the wealth of flowers available for study. The day class offers the added bonus of getting out into the field to observe and make collections.

NEW PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS
Beginning this summer and fall semesters, it is REQUIRED that students pay their tuition fees in full PRIOR to the first day of class. Fees can be paid at the Merritt College Cashier’s Office or can be paid online using the Peralta PASSPORT System. Students are asked to pay fees 2 weeks prior to the beginning of the semester. Those students enrolling after this period should pay their fees IMMEDIATELY to avoid a hold being placed on your account. Students on a Wait List must regularly check email during the registration period to see when they might be admitted to the class.
You may request a full refund if the class is cancelled or you drop a full semester class during the first 2 weeks of the term. As this crisis has no end in sight we will need you to do the best you can in registering early and often for the next few years!
