NIU LLI: Notables

The NIU Lifelong Learning Institute (LLI), established in 2000, is a member-directed group of individuals primarily age 50+ who enjoy learning in informal, flexible, non-competitive groups and like connecting with peers who share their interests. No grades, no tests – just learning for the fun of it. Course Description: Since our beginning, over 20 years ago, the LLI has offered Notables, weekly talks by experts, most often NIU faculty. We continue the series this spring with topics including reevaluating Thomas Jefferson, the economics of immigration, railroads in World War II and more. A full schedule of topics and speakers will be available later. LLI Members often have found that topics that seemed of minor interest turned out to be intriguing. As always, we include plenty of time to ask questions.
