Updates December 1, 2009: The learning center has returned. Unfortunately, I was unable to export the user list to the new courseware, so you will all need to sign up again. However, the new system is dependable or else this time I have someone to yell at about it. ;-) It's still being built, so pardon our dust while we work on it. However, if you'd like to request courses or teach a course about African or diaspora culture, crafts, or anything else related, hit the course request button and fill out the form.
