Winter Term Housekeeping Reminders

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!


Part of what makes OLLI at SOU so wonderful is the high number of quality and varied courses we offer. Please help maintain the integrity of our program by only attending courses that you are registered for. We also ask that you notify the OLLI office (olli@sou.edu) when you need to drop a course, as several classes have waitlists. Your fellow members thank you!
