About Us
SLR is a non-profit, member-run organization of retired or semi-retired individuals from all walks of life who share a love of lifelong learning. Our environment is welcoming and friendly, and the only requirement for membership is a willingness to actively participate in your own and others’ learning experience.
Through shared learning, members expand their knowledge and skills on a variety of topics. A feeling of camaraderie is also fostered through group discussions and social events. If you love to learn, SLR is for you!
We are a registered charitable organization that has been generously sponsored by Westminster College Foundation. When you join SLR, you become part of a community of adults 55 years of age or better who encourage each other to continue learning. We maintain a friendly environment where thoughts, ideas, experiences and interests are shared and new friends are made.
The basis of our programs is peer learning/peer teaching: sharing with others what you know or discover about a subject. There are no competitions, no grades, no exams – just an opportunity to learn together in a friendly environment.
