"OLLI at UConn is here to serve everyone in our community and beyond," says OLLI Director Fiona de Merell. “We want to celebrate our diversity and the history of how Black Americans helped shape Waterbury. We also want to learn how to be more inclusive at OLLI so we can provide great lifelong learning experiences for us all. I encourage newcomers and OLLI members alike to attend our Juneteenth celebration and become part of our enjoyable and caring learning community."
