One Day University

With all the talk about brain stimulation to reduce the risk of dementia, I think going back to college would give you a pretty good mental workout.

But, I’m guessing not many people have the time or the money to go back.

Enter One Day University, a day long seminar that brings the best Ivy League professors together – “the best part of college, the learning, without the homework or exams”.

According to One Day University, participants tend to be boomers and retirees who have put their kids through college and now want to relive the experience for themselves. Others want to keep their minds agile and be stimulated by new concepts and relevant issues.

One Day University selects the best teachers from top universities for their dynamic presentation style, as judged by students and peers. The classes are held in the Northeastern United States, and, they cover such topics as American Studies, Bioethics, Psychology, Astronomy and Political Science.

If you’re in the area, it might be good to look into it, perhaps it would make a unique gift for a senior.
