“Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.”
The quote made famous by Albert Einstein reflects the beliefs behind the University of Maryland, Baltimore’s (UMB) new Academy of Lifelong Learning (ALL). ALL’s mission is to create and present health and human services academic content to inspire, engage, and educate learners from middle school through retirement. It is built to engage UMB alumni and the broader community in an online forum where more than two dozen UMB subject matter experts answer questions submitted by the general public.
ALL launched in May 2020 with its COVID-19 Response Forum, inviting people to ask questions through an online form and view answers from UMB experts on coronavirus-related topics including infectious disease, virology, wellness, nutrition, stress management, public health, and the care of children and seniors. We invite you to ask any questions you might have as we navigate the pandemic.
ALL is based within the University’s Graduate School, bringing together experts and knowledge from across all UMB schools and institutes. In the near future, ALL will develop new forums, each focused on a topic of great interest to the UMB community, such as parenting and social justice.
ALL invites your input and ideas on how to make this a valuable resource for you and your families now and in the future.
Learn how you can support ALL.
