If you are 50 or older, with a curious mind and a keen interest in learning - just for the love of it – you are invited to join with like-minded older learners who are members of the University of Southern Maine Senior College at Lewiston-Auburn College. The classes are taught by peers, with no entrance requirements, grades or tests. Your experience and love of learning are what count.
Our mission is to provide a curriculum of intellectually stimulating learning opportunities and special events for persons 50 years of age or older. Senior College is an affiliate of the Elderhostel Institute Network and is one of 16 Senior Colleges throughout Maine.
USM provides us access to classrooms, a library, office space and communications, which enable us to maintain low course and membership fees. In return many members provide volunteer support to Senior College and our course fees contribute to a scholarship fund for Androscoggin County USM students.
Annual membership includes access to all Senior College
courses, newsletters, research privileges, and free social
activities. An annual membership fee of $25 is required for
course enrollment.
Senior College tote-bags available at the campus Bookstore!
