| | Last Week to Submit Winter Course Proposals | | |
Only one week left to submit your Winter 2027 Course Proposal Form. All proposals are due by midnight on August 31!
OLLI at SOU members are eager for fresh ideas this winter! Our members always request courses in foreign languages for travelers, movement, science and hands-on art. Courses can be held online or in-person.
Winter term runs Jan. 4-March 12 and is a great time to beat the cold and offer an online course. If you're new to teaching online, we will provide support and training.
Bring your knowledge and passion to the OLLI at SOU community. Email apcoleman2019@gmail.com with any questions.
