Registration for Winona State University’s Grandparents University 2014 is now open.
Grandparents University is an opportunity for grandparents to explore college life with grandchildren during a two-day intergenerational learning experience June 19-20. Participants will learn from WSU faculty and staff in an interactive, collaborative and fun-filled environment. On-campus housing in WSU’s New Center West Residence Hall is also available.
Grandparents and grandchildren select a major of study and take classes in their selected field. This year’s majors are: My Grandparents’ Living History; Physical, Mental and Nutritional Olympics for the Young and Not So Young; Crime Scene Investigation; Outdoor Learning Adventure; Mysterious Microbes; and Japanese Culture: Customs, Traditions, Language.
Participants do not have to be a grandparent to participate. Grandparents University offers any special “Grandfriend” the opportunity to explore college life and create lifelong memories.
Grandparents University also will accept a trio of participants. Two grandparents can bring one grandchild or one grandparent can bring two grandchildren. All must be enrolled in the same major.
