Life-Long Learners believe that a personal commitment on the part of the individual, as well as a commitment from Colgate University, is necessary for the continued growth of all employees. It is very important for Life-Long Learners, as individuals and employees of Colgate, to continue growing and learning in order to accept the changes that are inevitable in our changing environment and in the new millennium. Life-Long Learners meet once a month. Each member fosters support by sharing, helping, listening, advising, and easing the minds of others who have similar interests in continuing their education either on or off campus in combination with working at Colgate University. We share information concerning various higher education colleges and universities, classes, professors, programs, fees, registration processes, advising, books, etc.
Membership is informal, voluntary, and free.
New members are always welcome. Life-Long Learners celebrate the accomplishments of each member when they receive their diploma. In addition to major accomplishments, we commend other smaller milestones. Graduates are welcome to continue involvement in the group and encourage other members through graduation, as well as consider the possibility of receiving an additional degree by furthering their education.
