"These students have lots of curiosity and, in this age group, so much experience. It's a little bit intimidating -- it keeps us on our toes."

LIFE Academy
At NMC's life academy, "Learning is forever"
Lifelong learning for age 50 and better, no papers or exams -- just excellent discussions and activities. Most Life Academy classes are short -- two to five sessions -- and homework is limited, with ample time for discussion. Participants have told us they enjoy the chance for stimulating and challenging experiences, with the added benefit of meeting others with similar interests.
