Some community and state colleges can be pretty cheap, and most schools offer night classes for those who work all day. A gen-ed like geology is likely to have such hours available for this community of night students, especially if you live in an area where geology is related to employment. Usually pretty cheap to take one class at a time through something like an Adult and Continuing Education program.

To be clear, I'm Canadian. As far as I'm aware big-boy institutions are the only option. They're cheaper than the US ones, especially if you stay in province, but it's still hundreds per credit.
