The Persuit of Learning in Society (Polis) is a Quincy University sponsored organization that allows active adults over 55 years of age to continue a lifetime of learning while relaxing in a comfortable academic setting.

The Polis fall semester kicked off on September 9 and will continue throughout the semester with over 30 courses covering a range of topics. Polis members are introduced to new subjects and ideas without the strain of outside study,paper writing or tests taking, while engaging in stimulating lectures and conversations. Courses are designed to open minds and stimulate thinking about a variety of topics and are taught by University professors, field experts, religious leaders, physicians and more.
