Upcoming Events
UBC Okanagan Meeting | June 5
Join us for a Special Meeting with Dr. Benoit-Antoine Bacon. Dr. Bacon will meet with members of the Emeritus College on the Okanagan campus and give a short presentation on his journey to UBC, what he sees for the future of UBC and where Emeriti fit in.
Paul Harrison, Emeritus College Principal, will also be in attendance to discuss the benefits of the Emeritus College and how members living in the Okanagan can access all that the Emeritus College has to offer.
Finally, we hope to discuss ideas for expansion of the UBC Emeritus College special interest groups for those living in the Okanagan. Currently there is a UBC-O Outdoor Activities Group but any new ideas will be most welcome!
Please note this is an in-person event.
