OLLI Membership

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Clemson University is a non-profit organization. OLLI membership is open to any adult who is age 50 and better. Membership fees are applied to program expenses such as printing, postage, facilities, audio-visual equipment, marketing, and the salaries of the office staff.

Membership Policy:

The OLLI Board is pleased to present the OLLI Annual Member Benefit Program for our members. Annual Membership is a requirement for enrollment in any OLLI course or event. In developing our Annual Membership Program, we have secured a number of membership benefits for you, in addition to providing you with exciting and varied course offerings throughout the year.

Fees:

Subscriber - $15 – (For persons unable to enroll in courses for any part or all of the academic year but who wish to receive the catalogs and newsletters for the following term, with full membership and voting privileges).

Annual Membership – $15 - Annual Membership is a requirement for enrollment in any course, excursion, or special event. The OLLI Board has added a new membership option to our list.  You may choose a fiscal year membership (July-June) or a calendar year membership (January-December).  If you sign up for membership in July, August, September, October, November or December, you will be on a fiscal year; if you sign up in January, February, March, April, May or June, you will be on a calendar year.  We hope you enjoy this new addition.  The Annual Membership Program has been implemented to allow us to report OLLI membership statistics according to the reporting requirements of our major benefactor, the Bernard Osher Foundation as well as to better forecast our annual membership for planning our course offerings on a long-term basis.

Calling All Volunteers:

We need your help. Our office staff and some of our instructors need some assistance from time to time. So we are asking you to consider volunteering some of your time as an OLLI CLASS ASSISTANT.

If you would like to serve as a classroom assistant, you would be assigned only to an instructor in whose class you are registered. Your duties might include taking attendance, distributing handouts and course evaluations, and ensuring proper equipment set-up. You will receive training for this position during a Volunteer Training Program.

Please consider accepting our invitation to serve as a volunteer. If you are interested, let us know by completing the volunteer box located on the back of the registration form, and someone from the OLLI office will contact you. We appreciate your support as all of us are committed to providing the best lifelong learning program in the Upstate.
