Institute for Learning In Retirement

We were hoping to welcome you back to our Spring 2022 program, but unfortunately due to current COVID guidelines, in-person programming will not be held. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the ILR office via email. We are hopeful for a return to campus in the Fall. Stay healthy and we look forward to welcoming you back to the ILR.

At the Institute for Learning in Retirement, our aim is to develop opportunities for sharing knowledge and skills with others.
