Seniors-to-Seniors Presentation and Tea
2018-05-17 10:00 - 12:00 | Campus Center, Campus Center, 30 Campus Rd., Annandale-on-Hudson, NY, 12504, United States
Each May, LLI “seniors” gather to honor Bard College’s graduating seniors who were selected as recipients of the Dean Stuart Stritzler-Levine Seniors-to-Seniors Scholarships. The scholarships are awarded to the honorees to assist with their senior projects. The grants are one of the many ways that LLI strives to give back to Bard and to strengthen the ties between the generations.
In the past, student topics have ranged from:

Studying conceptions of racial and bi-racial identity in Japanese culture;
Studying the experiences of refugees and displaced persons in Germany;
Exploring China’s one-child policy;
Analyzing the functional redundancy of Presenilin-1 and -2 in Alzheimer’s disease; and
Analyzing the London Eye and the theoretical concepts that inform the various perceptions of this urban landmark.
Student films, photography projects, and original translations have also been presented.

At the end of the presentations, afternoon tea will be served with LLI member-made delicious sandwiches, desserts, and pastries. Fresh fruit is available. At this time members will have an opportunity to talk to the students and ask questions about their projects.
This event is on Thursday, May 17 in Weis Cinema at Bertlesmann Campus Center, 10 a.m until 12 noon.

Notify New Applicants of Acceptance
2018-05-16 08:00 - 17:00 | NY
LLI uses a lottery system to select new members for acceptance. The exception is applicants with critical skills which are needed to fill in the LLI volunteer team.
Applicants can expect an email on this date of their acceptance with a link to a new member application form. Accepted applicants have until July 22 to complete the new member application form and pay the $175 annual membership fee by credit card.
Accepted applicants who do not pay their membership fee will be considered as declining the invitation to join LLI, opening up the position for another applicant.

Bard LLI is an all-volunteer managed organization. We need more volunteers to better serve our members AND it is one of the responsibilities of membership.
You have skills we need! Come to the information session to see how you can help LLI. Committee chairs will describe what they do and the help they need.
Among other tasks, we need help with:

Hospitality (all those refreshments you enjoy between classes);
Program support (class support, AV, catalog, social activities);
Media (photography and videos – we will train you);
Communications (write and edit stories for web site and newsletter);
Membership development (admission, orientation, services);
Governance (nominations, elections);
Planning and Evaluation (coordinate work of committees and track progress);
Administration and Infrastructure (registration, finance, technology).

Many hands make light work.
