SRI UNIVERSITY - NEVER STOP LEARNING

Keeping mentally fit is just as important as staying physically fit. That's why we developed SRI University—to challenge residents' minds while helping them stay mentally fit.

SRI University is a premier life-long learning program designed to meet the needs of the older adult learner. Classes are offered university-style, where sometimes the resident is the teacher and other times, they are the students.

Each month has an educational theme, and each week a new course is taught. Courses range from the Art of Being Happy to studying America's most fortified locations. Not only will residents receive knowledge through this program, but they'll also receive a university badge and certificates of completion.

SRI University is a voluntary experience, and open to all residents who would like to stay curious and mentally fit.
