OLLI: A Community with a Passion for Learning |
 |
It is never too early - or too late - for learning! The UCSC Extension Osher Lifelong Learning Institute is a lively community of lifelong learners. Members share in the excitement, exploring new ideas and developing new skills, through year-round classes in the arts, humanities and sciences. We combine the academic excellence of UCSC Extension with stress-free learning. No tests and no grades - just the fun of learning!
Our courses are usually offered in a comfortable format of 2-hour sessions, and we also offer single-day workshops and field study programs. Courses and events are held at the UCSC Extension in Cupertino, and Santa Cruz - as well as the Little House Activity Center (Menlo Park), and the Albert J. Schultz Jewish Community Center (Palo Alto).
Membership is limited to adults who are 50 years of age or older. |
