What is AALL?

The Albion Area Lifelong Learners (AALL) was established by a group of retired persons after a suggestion by the Action Team of the Albion Alliance 2000. Sponsorship and a grant by Albion College enabled classes to begin during the spring of 2000. The membership has now grown to over 160 and includes members from a wide area around Albion. AALL is affiliated with the Elderhostel Institute Network. You must be 55 or older to join AALL but younger partners are eligible.

Our Mission

The mission of AALL is to provide opportunities for lifelong learning through discussion, intellectual and social interaction, and access to cultural events. Our classes provide an opportunity to be part of a learning process that includes stimulating discussion, humor, disagreement, insight and challenges to preconceived ideas.
