« back to classes page
ClassGraphic This course focuses on family and interpersonal relationships among middle-aged and older adults. OLLI members and URI students will come together during each class session to discuss course topics such as intimate ties and marriage; being single, partner loss, and new relationships; intergenerational relations; and grandparenting. The URI students will be taking part in a class that is cross listed between the Human Development & Family Science and Sociology departments, called HDF/SOC 431: Families and Aging. Each week all students will be assigned readings and in class, after an overview of the topic, the two generations of students will engage in small group discussion.
