Campbell Center, Room E, or via Zoom 

To celebrate our 30th anniversary, we've set an audacious goal to reach 30% member giving participation, and thanks to engagement from members like you, we are already up to 21%! We hope you are part of helping us exceed this goal, supporting OLLI now and in years to come as a center for sharing, learning, and community at SOU—thank you for your generosity! 

We invite you to support OLLI programs and possibilities with a tax-deductible donation to the OLLI Annual Fund today. 

Fall Course Proposals Coming Up

Course Proposals for fall term come in starting Wednesday, May 1! The online course proposal form will be live throughout the month of May. Courses can run from two to ten sessions and usually last from 60 - 120 minutes. Share what you know. Share your passion. The OLLI at SOU membership enjoys activities, arts, science, history, and so much more. Courses on Zoom have become favorites as the OLLI at SOU membership has expanded outside the Rogue Valley. You can access the online course proposal form using this link.

Email questions to: apcoleman2019@gmail.com. OLLI at SOU is looking forward to having your course in the fall catalog.
