OLLI at SOU NEWSFLASH

March 25, 2024

Add as many courses as you'd like from among the dozens of courses that have available spaces. Click here for the online catalog.

Remember that Open Enrollment is first-come, first-served. Online registration is the quickest way to get into the classes you want.

Changed your mind about taking a course? Just email the OLLI office at [email protected] with "DROP" in the subject line and include your name and the title of the course(s). We'll free up that space to make room for someone to add it.

Our Spring Term Special is still going! Encourage your friends, neighbors, and acquaintances to try OLLI at SOU for only $75. Spring Term runs April 1–June 7.

Open Registration starts today. This is when courses fill on a first-come, first-served basis. Want to register for a course online quickly and secure your seat immediately? Member-volunteers are holding registration helper hours today and tomorrow to assist members in creating an account, adding classes to their cart, and checking out. This is a much faster way to get courses you want than turning in a paper copy to the office.

Come to our Registration Helper Hours in Room A of the SOU Campbell Center:

• Monday (today), 9:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
• Tuesday, March 29, 1:00–4:00 p.m.

Please stop by during these helper sessions to take advantage of our online registration system!

You now have the ability to see how many seats are available in a course in realtime. Go to our spring term catalog and choose the "Courses" icon. The bottom two fields within each course description display the Maximum Enrollment and the number of Seats Available in each course. These numbers are updated automatically as members enroll.

Note: if the Seats Available field is missing, the course is full. A message in red text in the description will advise you of that as well. Please add yourself to the waitlist, drop in to our Registration Helper Hours, or call the OLLI office to do so.

In accordance with SOU's sustainability goals, OLLI at SOU has eliminated single-use items. Coffee mugs are available for use in the members' lounge.

• If you use a mug from the members' lounge, please return it to the lounge and wash it by hand. Dish soap and a sponge are in the members' lounge sink.
• Even better: bring your own insulated thermos and help yourself to a K-cup of coffee, hot cocoa, or tea!

If you requested a name badge ahead of spring term, it will be ready to pick up in the OLLI at SOU office. Name badges are hanging on the wall adjacent to the front door.

A few reminders about badges:

• Name tags are printed by request. If you request a name badge, please give the office one–two weeks to complete the request
• Name tags are meant to be picked up and taken home. Please do not store your badge in the office.

Have a question or need help with your OLLI membership?

The OLLI at SOU office is happy to assist you.
