Washington University in St. Louis has launched a national search for a new dean to lead professional and continuing education at the university. Currently operating as University College, the school is being reimagined as a community-focused hub for adult learners in the St. Louis region, providing new programs for career advancement and enrichment. Pending approval by the Board of Trustees later this spring, the new school will launch with new academic divisions in areas including data, health and health care; and management and administration. It also will have new opportunities for students to complete programs within the liberal arts. Undergraduate and graduate students will continue to be served.

At first glance, the Trend + Relic home décor store in St. Charles looks a bit misplaced in an old industrial district tucked into a neighborhood on the east side of town.
But once inside, it s easy to see what owners Karri Custardo and Heather Corcoran fell in love with.
The former label printing plant site at 1501 Indiana Ave. has been transformed into a vintage and new home décor mecca with the handmade work of various artists and artisans on display. The high ceilings, warehouse feel and, especially, the amount of current space and ability to expand was too hard to pass up.
