FALL 2010 OSHER SCHEDULE OF CLASSES

Welcome to OLLI!

Established in 2004 at the University of Richmond School of Continuing Studies, the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute operates through the support of its members, the University of Richmond, and through an endowment from the Bernard Osher Foundation of San Francisco. We offer intellectual stimulation and civic engagement in a community of lifelong learners, age 50 and better. Rediscover your love for learning. And do it all on the beautiful University of Richmond campus. We offer an extensive array of courses in the liberal arts in the fall, spring and summer semesters. The offerings are a combination of undergraduate credit courses for audit, special interest groups, mini-courses, free lectures, community service projects, and more. There are no entrance requirements, no tests and no grades. In fact, no college background is needed at all—it’s your love of learning that counts. If you’re 50 or better with a curious mind and a keen interest in learning, we’d love for you to join us.

OLLI Advisory Council

Composed of volunteer Osher members, the OLLI Advisory Council is actively engaged in assessment and improvement activities for all aspects of the Osher Institute. A list of the current members and meeting minutes of the OLLI Advisory Council are posted on the OLLI website. Advisory Council members serve on committees for Membership, Public Relations, Curriculum, Course Leader Support and Development.

OLLI Leadership Opportunities

Members of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute are invited to participate as leaders in many aspects of the Institute and the UR Community. OLLI members who engage as leaders expand their OLLI experience in and beyond the classroom by leading OLLI classes, serving on committees and more. Please contact the OLLI office for more details and to sign-up for leadership opportunities. 4
