Lifelong Learning

We firmly believe the old adage: “You are never too old to learn something new.”

The Lipscomb University Lifelong Learning program offers people of retirement and semi-retirement age an opportunity to expand knowledge and explore new ideas in an informal, non-competitive environment. Learning occurs in a pleasant social atmosphere in classes with your peers—without exams, grades or credit hours! Plus, no previous educational requirement is needed. Select one or more of the courses offered, and engage in the ongoing work of learning.

Plans for the fall program are underway, and more details will be coming once they're finalized. In the meantime, Lifelong Learning is excited to announce the launch of its Summer at the Mansion series with two events in June.
