through the BAS courses but also typically taking one lower division course at the same time. We offer a high/low tuition wherein they get a discount on the lower division course as long as they are concurrently enrolled in the upper division courses. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p style="background:white"><i><span style="color:#212121">I would like to acknowledge the people whose land we are gathered on today. Present day Des Moines is located on the traditional village sites of the Muckleshoot, Duwamish, Puyallup and many other
tribes who made their homes on these lands and along these waters.</span></i><span style="color:#212121"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><i><span style="color:#212121">Let us also acknowledge the robust Indigenous communities made up of tribal diversity that originate from around the country, and whose journeys have brought them here and to other locations by ways
of forced displacement or seeking opportunities.</span></i><span style="color:#212121"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
