registration is now open for
THIS year’s Mini College, june 3-5!

Mini College consists of three days of lectures on the Lawrence campus by some of KU’s best educators, plus other special events. It’s open to all adults.  The Mini College planning committee has already arranged for numerous speakers.  To see a list of the lecturers who so far have committed to appear, click here or on the 2024 Presenters tab above.  And we’re working to sign up more.

To register, click on the Register tab above.

This year, most of our meetings will be in Slawson Hall, 1420 Naismith Dr. (across the street from the Engineering Building), because our traditional home at Spooner Hall is unavailable.

Again in 2024 we’re working in partnership with the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute and KU’s Lifelong & Professional Education office.  Both were an immense help to us last year.

We’ve already arranged for some attractive lodging options while you’re attending this year’s gathering.  We’ve also again arranged for a parking permit costing only $10 that will let you park in any campus lot or garage during Mini College.

Last year’s Mini College was again one of the best.  The lectures drew rave reviews, and we had more than 90 attendees.

To view a list of the 2023 presentations, click here or on the Prior Years tab above. Links to videos of the presentations were sent to all paid registrants. If you qualified and didn’t get the list, let us know.  Photos of 2023’s Mini College are here or on the Photos tab above.

For the latest Mini College news, check back here or on our Facebook page.  And don’t forget that Mini College needs your financial help.  We have now achieved the necessary $25,000 in donations to create an endowment fund that will help ensure the future of our unique organization. Now we need to make the fund grow so that we can rely on interest money each year to support our activities. Go here or click on the Endowment tab above to learn more and to contribute.
