WELCOME BACK TO OLLI!

Stony Brook University

Welcome to the Spring 2020 semester for OLLI at SBU & the first ever edition of the OLLI at SBU What's Happening Newsletter. I hope that you had a wonderful holiday season, made lots of memories, and had delicious meals together with family & friends.

We are so delighted to have you back on campus and hope you will stop into the newly renovated OLLI Main office and say hello to our entire team; including our newest staff member Liz Wilson, Member Relations Assistant.

It is with great pleasure that I share with you some of the fantastic things we have happening this semester. In addition to the updates made to the main office, the OLLI lounge has also been renovated. To check out all of the new accommodations and updates stop by, SBS S149 & join us for the official Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Wednesday 2/12.

Here at OLLI at SBU, we are constantly looking for new ways to improve the member experience. After reviewing the member satisfaction surveys that were sent out during the Fall semester, we have since organized lots of exciting new workshops; cooking classes, recreational activities such as golf & tennis, a CPR certification course & a walking club - just to name a few.

I hope you will make the most of your OLLI experience and continue to add to your OLLI story by trying new workshops, meeting new people and getting involved with all that OLLI has to offer! Have a fantastic semester!
