AN INVITATION TO LEARNING

If you are an Ohio citizen age 60 or over, a unique opportunity awaits you at The Ohio State University. Program 60 (P60) is a legislatively mandated program for Ohio residents who are at least 60 years of age. P60 enables qualified individuals to attend courses ON A SPACE AVAILABLE BASIS. Enjoy the experience of learning just for fun - participants do not pay tuition, they will not appear on a class roster; and they will not receive college credit. P60 provides an excellent opportunity for you to remain engaged in intellectual activity with people of all ages. Your life experiences will add much to classroom discussions. And, the Mansfield campus is beautifully inviting every season of the year!


ACCOUNTING TO ZOOLOGY

You may enroll in areas ranging from accounting or art history to philosophy, psychology or zoology. Most lecture courses are open to Program 60 participants. In history, for example, there are classes on Western and Eastern Civilizations, the Americas, the ancient Mediterranean, medieval history, and other areas as well. Political science and sociology will help you to see your society and government in a new light. Summer Quarter 2008 schedule.


LEARNING FOR FUN

There are no required assignments for Program 60 participants and you are not required to purchase books and supplies. You do not take exams or write papers unless you would like to do so. We do, however, encourage you to participate in class discussions.

Some courses are more difficult to get into than others. Painting and writing courses often do not have available spaces and laboratory courses are sometimes closed. We will help you find a course that matches your interests but do not hesitate to try something new!


IT’S EASY TO START
