Lifelong learning initiative offers short, noncredit courses including history, health, nature and nutrition

The Macomb Organization for Retiree Enrichment (MORE), a lifelong learning initiative presented by Macomb Community College, will offer nearly 30 in-person courses during its fall semester Oct. 25 through Nov. 19. The courses each last approximately two hours, with 30 minutes reserved for a question-and-answer period. For a registration fee of $75, members can sign up for as many as 10 courses ranging from technology to music to health. Each class is limited to 20 participants.

“We’re excited to be able to come back together in-person this semester to continue to learn about the world around us and recapture the social element of Macomb’s MORE program,” said William Wood, director, Cultural Affairs and Community Engagement, Macomb Community College. “With the courses offered this semester, every MORE member will find engaging opportunities to learn something new.”

Courses are taught by volunteer subject matter experts, including Macomb faculty, and cover a variety of topics including being an educated consumer, navigating services for seniors and the history of the nuclear age. Some highlights of the fall semester include:

MORE will also offer two roundtables in which members have the opportunity to discuss topics of interest from previous sessions and reflect on the program as a whole. All courses, including the roundtables, will be held in the Macomb University Center, which is located on the college’s Center Campus in Clinton Township. Courses may be converted to a virtual format if necessary if COVID-19 precaution guidelines change.

Online registration for MORE’s fall semester is now open. To view the course catalog and to register, go to www.lorenzoculturalcenter.com/more. For more information, email MORE@macomb.edu or call 586.226.4759.
