Description:

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) is a vibrant, member-driven program of the Northwestern University School of Professional Studies. OLLI offers year-round sessions of study groups: small, two-hour, seminar-style discussions that occur weekly in the daytime on Northwestern’s Evanston and Chicago campuses. Study groups are proposed, designed, and facilitated by OLLI members and cover a wide range of topics including civic engagement, contemporary issues, creative arts, history and government, literature, science and technology, and social sciences. Members of our cooperative learning community generate an exciting and intellectually challenging curriculum of more than 100 study groups per semester serving over 1500 adults on the Evanston and Chicago campuses. Composed of seasoned learners from all walks of life, OLLI members pursue learning for pure pleasure: there are no tests and no grades.

“A Taste of OLLI” is a free information session for non-members to learn more about OLLI’s structure, study groups, and events. If you’re interested in joining our vibrant community of lifelong learners, sign up to attend an information session today!

An additional session will be held on our Chicago campus on 12/5/19.
