It is back-to-school time...and not just for kids! The 2016 Fall Osher Lifelong Learning catalog is now available at the Hospitality Desk and online at www.osher.ku.edu. The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Kansas has teamed up with Kansas State University to bring to the Manhattan area the diverse content, innovative learning opportunities and quality faculty that promote lifelong learning in the community.

The Osher Institute offers courses for their expertise, a passion for the topic and a love for teaching. Courses generally meet weekly for two hours over a three-week period and require no homework, out-of-class preparation or testing.

Meadowlark Hills residents and Passport Members may register for the classes at no cost! Meadowlark Hills is a sponsor which means class fees have been pre-paid. Any Special Events need payment to register for the events.

UFM Coordinator, Charlene Brownson, will be at Meadowlark Hills in the Kansas Room & Pub from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 31, for fall registration sign-up. She will also be available after Town Meeting from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Monday, Sept. 12,  in the KSU Classroom to assist with registrations.
