OLLI in the Valley!
Welcome to OLLI at UVa!
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Virginia brings together people from various backgrounds who share a common interest in learning and intellectual stimulation.
Formed in association with the University of Virginia in 2001 as the Jefferson Institute for Lifelong Learning, the Institute was inspired by Thomas Jefferson's own deeply-held belief in, and practice of, education as a lifelong enterprise which invigorates the mind and enriches life.
"This institution of my native state, the hobby of my old age, will be based on the illimitable freedom of the human mind, to explore and to expose every subject susceptible of its contemplation."
Thomas Jefferson in letter to Destutt de Tracy
Dec. 26, 1820
OLLI at UVa is recognized as a University-Related Foundation
by the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia.
