The popular faculty lecture series is returning to Arthur Zankel Music Center on Tuesdays, Oct. 1 through Nov. 12. Since 1980, 小福利导航 faculty have been delivering lively presentations on a broad array of topics to area residents ages 55 and older from across the local region.

Lectures begin at 10:15 a.m. each Tuesday. Two 45-minute lectures will be delivered each day, and a 10-minute interactive question-and-answer period will follow each presentation. 

小福利导航 Encore is interesting, stimulating, and fun. It's a gift from 小福利导航 College to encore learners, offering access to top faculty who share their insights in a TED Talk format. Topics range from current issues to historical lessons and scientific predictions for the future.
