Lifelong Learning

Learning is a lifetime process, not something that ends with graduation. The UI Alumni Association, along with various partners across campus, is committed to providing enrichment through Lifelong Learning programs. Each year, at events held in cities across Iowa, UI faculty and staff share their knowledge and experience with alumni and friends of the university. Topics range from health issues and current events to career development.

To ensure that you receive invitations to Lifelong Learning events in your area, please update your record at www.iowalum.com/update.

Dreams, Life, and Aging: Intergenerational Perspectives

Thursday, February 16, 2012
6:30 p.m.
Melrose Meadows, 350 Dublin Drive, Iowa City (Map)

UI Associate Director of Student Development, David Gould, will lead a presentation on Bookends, a recent project that paired students in his "Aging and Leisure" course with local senior citizens to share their dreams, life lessons, and thoughts on aging. Inspired by this dialogue, the group composed and recorded two songs: one about the seniors' reflections on the past and another featuring the students' goals for the future. Enjoy this insight into the world of aging and how these relationships and dialogues inspired the group.
