The weeklong program for adults is taught by IU faculty members and takes place on the Bloomington campus. Registration is required, although remaining spaces are limited.
“Mini University 2019 promises to deliver another amazing week of learning,” said the program’s director, Betsy Watson. “We are delighted to have a roster of top faculty eager to teach adult audiences.”
The Indiana University Alumni Association sponsors Mini U, which is in its 48th year. This year’s program will include classes about technology, the arts, national issues, education and health.
“Think of it as being at college for a week, and you’re getting a taste of topics that professors are most passionate about,” Watson said. “But you don’t have to worry about tests or quizzes.”
Students typically take three to four classes per day and are invited to attend film screenings, the Shawnee Theatre and special meals.•
