AI Summary
This bill requires Connecticut State Community Colleges to permit Learning in Retirement (LIR) programs to operate on their campuses. Learning in Retirement programs are typically educational initiatives designed for older adults or retirees who want to continue learning and engaging in academic pursuits after their professional careers. The bill amends title 10a of the general statutes to mandate that these programs be allowed to use community college facilities, providing seniors with opportunities for continued intellectual and social engagement. By creating a formal requirement for community colleges to host these programs, the legislation aims to support lifelong learning and provide educational resources for older adults within existing state educational infrastructure.
