Senior Scholars, founded in 1973, is an organization for seniors and retirees where members meet weekly to hear a prominent speaker on interesting and diverse topics. Don’t let the “Scholars” title scare you. An academic degree is not required, only an interest in future learning.

Senior Scholars welcomes Retirees to a New Learning Experience! Some people think that retirement is empty time, like being in “heaven’s waiting room.” In Charlotte, senior citizens are known for their vitality, love of learning and desire to give back to their community. This is an organization that offers welcoming fellowship and wonderful opportunities to broaden your intellectual perspective and improve your understanding of international, national and local issues and subjects of interest.
