<div>These courses were added due to high demand and classes filling up fast. Thank you to Dr. Sampath for doing these additional classes. These classes are normally held in person by Grandview Heights Public Library, but in light of COVID-19 the Grandview
Library is now hosting Dr. Sampath's classes online. <br>
