Article of the Week: From the October 8th Oregonian, “Losing job was sweet to lifelong learner,” showcases a new learning company here in the Portland area, Mindglo. Offering classes in cooking, business/finance, health/wellness, art, personal growth and more, this is a great alternative for community education.
