About the OLLI community

UD’s OLLI programs are structured as learning cooperatives, with a semester-based membership and volunteer leaders and instructors supported by UD and OLLI staff.

OLLI is not affiliated with any religious or political organization, nor does OLLI endorse or promote any political or religious viewpoints.

OLLI participants interact in a learning community that embodies a wide range of experiences, cultures, abilities and even generations. Civil discourse, the free and open exchange of ideas, mutual tolerance and everyday courtesy are hallmarks of the OLLI community.

OLLI community conduct

As members of the larger University of Delaware community, OLLI participants are subject to UD and OLLI community conduct guidelines, including those that prohibit disruptive behavior, sexual harassment and other inappropriate or disrespectful conduct. Click here for details about UD OLLI Conduct Regulations.
