No homework. No tests. No Pressure. Just learning for the fun of it.

Senior Tip -- Take a look at Osher.

In my search for new resources and activities for seniors, I came across the Osher Institute at the University of Kansas. Osher Lifelong Learning Institutes offer noncredit courses with no assignments or grades to “seasoned” adults over age 50. Since 2001 philanthropist Bernard Osher has made grants from his foundation to launch OLLI programs at over 120 universities and colleges in 49 states and the District of Columbia. 

The University of Kansas recently received a $1 million dollar grant and now offers 53 courses, at 21 sites in 10 cities across Kansas. The Kansas courses include local history, state wide excursions, art, music, famous politicians and the Frank Sinatra story. In other words, a wide range of subject matter. I am going to sign up for one of the courses in the fall on Winston Churchill.

Check it out in your state.  Try this link.
