The Bucknell Institute for Lifelong Learning (BILL) invites you to explore a broad range of educational and intellectual opportunities for adult learners in our region and beyond. Keep mentally active in a relaxed and congenial setting where stimulating programs expose you to new ideas and interesting and sometimes controversial topics. Share your ideas and life experiences in a mutually supportive environment where you learn without concern for tests, grades or requirements other than participation. Whatever your prior educational experience, these programs only require curiosity and an interest in learning, all life long.

About BILL

Attendance at any public event involves certain unavoidable risks such as exposure to or infection by transmissible diseases, viruses and other illnesses (including, but not limited to, COVID-19 and its variants). Your presence at BILL events, including classes, indicates your assumption of any and all such risk as well as your agreement to adhere to those policies intended to mitigate the spread of transmissible illnesses.
As a member of our community or guest, it is your responsibility to practice basic health, safety and sanitation measures. BILL prohibits your attendance at in-person events if you are symptomatic of any commonly spread transmissible illness.
Masking at in-person events will be optional; please respect the decision of those who choose to mask. BILL strongly encourages you to follow CDC recommendations (Oct. 31, 2024): everyone over 6 months of age receive the 2024—2025 COVID-19 vaccine and that those ages 65 years and older and anyone who is moderately or severely immunocompromised get two doses of a 2024—2025 COVID-19 vaccine 6 months apart.
Transmissible disease precautions are subject to change as conditions change.
