Who We Are
The Elderscholar Lecture Series offered by Roanoke College is the oldest, largest and most popular component of Roanoke College's Elderscholar program. The Lecture Series, commonly referred to as "Elderscholar", was the original offering in Roanoke College's programming for senior citizens.
The Elderscholar Lecture Series is a six week program for senior citizens and retirees in the Roanoke Valley and nearby areas. The program, offered in both the fall and spring, allows seniors to commute to campus for challenging academic programs on a weekly basis. Each semester the Elderscholar program offers seniors age 55 and older a fun fellowship opportunity.
Advance registration is required. Participants are accepted on a first come first serve basis. To be placed on the Elderscholar mailing list for more information on Elderscholar, contact the Office of Community programs and Special Events - 540.375.2323 or contact elderscholar@roanoke.edu .
