Foothill College plans to expand its slate of in-person classes for the fall quarter, offering roughly 70% of the number of face-to-face courses available before the pandemic.
More than 400 class sections are expected to be offered on campus, with registration opening July 12 and classes starting Sept. 20. Despite the expanded on-campus offerings for the fall quarter, some courses will only be available online.
The plans still mark a substantial step in reopening the community college, which has operated largely online since the pandemic hit last year. Limited courses have been held in person up until this point, including Allied Health programs such as respiratory therapy and dental hygiene.

A short list of classes, including athletic courses, Spanish and theater, are all back on campus, along with medical training and certification programs that have been back for in-person instruction for more than a year.
