OLLI at CSU Channel Islands

OLLI at CSU Channel Islands Learning for the joy of learning!

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at CSU Channel Islands provides over 20 diverse courses in each of 3 sessions a year for students aged 50 and above. Students are not burdened with having to prepare for a career (most of us have "been there and done that"!), taking tests and worrying about grades - simply learning for learning's sake! Members discover fascinating academic subjects that embrace history, science, politics, the arts, culture, social science and more!
