"The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute has been established at the University of Richmond School of Continuing Studies through a grant from the Bernard Osher Foundation of San Francisco. We are a membership organization that serves adults ages 50 and older who are seeking opportunities for intellectual stimulation in a community of lifelong learners.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 mini-courses and lectures, community service projects, performing arts events, 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." Available at other colleges as well!

Will sponsor two Silver Summit retreats for mature adults in 2007.
