Mission

The mission of OLLI@CSUMB is to create and facilitate an educational program that delivers the joys and benefits of lifelong learning. OLLI celebrates the insatiable curiosity of older adults and their ongoing quest to learn about, engage with, and contribute to the world around them.

The Big Idea

The pandemic illuminated a new way for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute to bring educational programs to its audience of curious older adults. By embracing some of the pandemic’s quickly adopted innovations, OLLI is now offering the You Decide project as its Big Idea. OLLI now livestreams courses, offers curated recordings and more, while still maintaining in-person learning. This opens up exciting new possibilities for people to participate from the safety of home.

It's the best of a living room conversation and an academic course. OLLI brings them together in such a wonderful way.
