CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. - Campbellsville University's six summer terms have begun, and there is still time for students to take classes as an opportunity for students to get ahead in their studies without so much hurt to their pocketbook.

Other summer terms available are: June 2-28, June 2-July 26, June 30-July 26 and June 30-Aug. 23.

Students can take summer classes in order to reduce class load in the fall and spring, which in turn could greatly reduce stress, Walters said.

Some classes offered include: accounting, physical activity, freshman composition, college algebra, understanding music, fundamentals of speech, world civilization to 1650, survey of music theory, American government, general psychology and many more.
