LIFELONG
LEARNING
WELCOME TO THE OSHER LIFELONG LEARNING
INSTITUTE
INSTITUTE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (UDOLLI) began 26 years ago as the University of Dayton
Institute for Learning in Retirement or UDILR. Since 2004, we have been proud members of
the Osher Lifelong Learning Network, a group of more than 100 institutes across the country
dedicated to meeting the needs of adult learners over 50 years of age who wish to gather for the
joy of learning and personal fulfillment.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
The purpose of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Dayton is to offer adults
50 years or better a wide variety of seminars based on the peer-learning concept and designed to
be intellectually stimulating in an informal and noncompetitive environment.
We are a vibrant community
We are adults with wide-ranging interests in art, current events, health and fitness, history,
literature, music, religion and science. A curriculum committee works with the Executive Director
of Special Programs and Continuing Education to select our curriculum on the basis of member
requests, the expertise of moderators, variety and balance. Moderators include University of
Dayton (UD) professors and community professionals who lead peer-to-peer informal lecture and
discussion seminars that typically meet once a week for two hours, for four to eight weeks. The
summer session is two one-day sessions, three lunch-and-learns and three online seminars.
Our seminars are noncredit
There are neither tests nor grades, nor educational requirements. Participation is essential,
ranging from keeping up with assigned readings and contributing to seminar discussion to sharing
the results of one’s own research. A majority of our seminars are held on the University of Dayton
river campus in Daniel J. Curran Place, 1700 South Patterson; others are on the UD main campus
with a few at off-site locations, such as the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery.
UDOLLI is a cooperative venture
We rely on the contributions and participation, both in seminars and out, of each member.
Members assist the Executive Director of Special Programs and Continuing Education by
moderating seminars, coordinating lecture series, leading small group discussions, organizing
activities and volunteer projects, serving on the board of advisors and committees, acting as
seminar liaisons, helping in the office and volunteering for all other tasks that keep us going.
Becoming a member of UDOLLI is easy
Registering for seminars is simple and convenient. Pages 14 and 15 give complete registration
information and procedures. Once you register for a seminar, you automatically become a
UDOLLI participating member for the current academic year. The term of membership
conforms to the academic calendar, beginning in September and ending in June.
4 | Osher Summer 2021 Seminars | L E A R N I N G I S F O R E V E RFriends of the Institute are individuals who donate $80 or more each year to support UDOLLI’s
goals; Life Members are individuals making a one-time donation of $2,000 or more; and
Distinguished Service Life Members are individuals giving UDOLLI extraordinary service.

5 | Osher Summer 2021 Seminars | L E A R N I N G I S F O R E V E RSUMMER SEMINARS
HOW HAS COVID-19 IMPACTED US?
What has been the impact of COVID-19 on your life? Every one of us can easily answer that question
individually. Our daily lives have changed — we have had to social distance, wear a mask, wash our
hands constantly, isolate, possibly experience anxiety, etc. However, the impact of COVID-19 and its
consequences are felt differently depending on our status as individuals and as members of society.
Since the virus has affected thousands of people locally, let us look at how COVID-19 has impacted the
Miami Valley as a whole. Julie Mitchell will moderate this four-week COVID-19 themed series. The
speakers will inform us of how the community, businesses, homeless, those with income loss, those with
mental health issues, elderly, those with long-term illnesses, healthcare professionals and hospitals have
been coping with the pandemic.
COVID-19 Community Impacts and Responses in Dayton
This presentation will detail how the Greater Dayton commu nity was impacted by the COVID-19

Dayton Foundation’s role in forming and administering the COVID Response Fund, Montgomery
County’s role in convening COVID emergency response work, and the Physicians Charitable
Foundation’s support of healthcare organizations. We will end by considering the long-term
effects of COVID on our community and some of the strategies emerging in real time to address
them. We will also allow time for discussion and welcome questions from participants.

Hospitals are Tackling the Challenges of COVID-19 Through Incredible
Collaboration
Our region’s hospitals were at the front lines of responding to COVID-19, ensuring the best
care and safety for patients, staff and our community. Their incredible commitment to working
together ensured they were able to adapt and respond to the changing nature of COVID-19 in
our region. This collaboration has taken many forms throughout the pandemic. In early 2020,
this included sharing physical items like personal protective equipment (PPE) and medical
supplies, as well as best practices in staffing and clinical care. When cases grew in the winter of
2020, they worked together to address the surge through regional planning efforts. And when
vaccine started to become available, hospitals partnered with each other as well as public health
departments and community organizations to ensure we were making the most of what started
as a very limited supply. While the pandemic continues to impact finances and operations for
our region’s hospitals, their collaborative effort continues to shine through in our collective
response.

NEW HORIZONS MUSIC
Learn to play music in a band as a senior adult — even if you have no musical experience!
Playing music is a special joy that will help you maintain mental and physical health. It is also
a way of experiencing life — playing music from the past keeps us in touch with those feelings;
daily practice keeps us active in the present; and striving for new goals attaches us to the future.
One band member describes it as “serious fun.”
As a member of New Horizons Music, you will meet new friends and work with them as a team to
learn music for concerts and other performances in the community. New Horizons ensembles
typically perform many times each year in venues ranging from formal concerts to shopping malls
and from parks to retirement and nursing homes.
UD New Horizons Music offers adults 50 years of age or better the opportunity to begin a musical
instrument and provides a re-entry point for those who have been away from active music making
for many years. Instruments taught include: flute, oboe, bassoon, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet,
