About the Program
The Center for Unlimited Enrichment (CUE) at Queens College is an innovative, low-cost educational program for older adult learners which contributes immeasurably to the quality of their lives.  It is intellectually challenging and provides opportunities to enhance their physical and mental health, develop social networks, play leadership roles in shaping their own program, and remain actively engaged in living life to the fullest.  CUE is unique in that it is designed by, adapted for and accessible to the older adult learner.  There are no tests, no grades, no credits, no pressures -- just learning for the pure joy of it.

Each semester, CUE offers short courses which meet once a week for two to eight weeks.  In addition, we provide an eight-week Brown Bag Lecture Series, low-cost cultural trips, and a six-week Summer Film Festival.  Fees for annual membership and course registration are modest:  $30 for annual membership and $60 for each eight-week course.  Fees are lower for shorter courses.

The CUE program began in March, 1981, with 75 students, enrolled in four six-week courses.  Classes met only on Fridays. Currently, more than 500 students participate in a greatly expanded program of educational, cultural and social activities.  Classes now meet on Mondays through Saturdays, between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm.  Many students enroll in multiple courses.  The faculty consists of current and retired faculty and other professionals, who enjoy sharing their extensive knowledge and expertise with older adults who are eager to learn and grow.

Fees
CUE students pay a non-refundable annual student fee of $ 30 for a program of varied activities.  The year begins July 1 and ends June 30.

For this moderate fee, CUE students can enroll in CUE classes, participate in CUE cultural and social events and play an active role in shaping the CUE program.  They are also welcome in the Queens College Library reading rooms.

In addition to the CUE annual student fee, course fees are  $ 60 per 8-session course; shorter courses have lower fees.  Your canceled check is your receipt for all fees.  See refund policy below.

Bulletins for Fall programs are available early August, and classes start in late September; Spring bulletins are available early January, and classes start early in March.  All the information from the printed Bulletin is included on this web site.  To receive the printed Bulletin, phone the CUE Office at 718-997-3635.

What makes the symphonies of Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) great?  What was so revolutionary about these works that they came to serve as the Mt. Everest to composers like Schumann and Brahms who came after him?   No composer has had such a profound and widespread influence on the development of the symphony, as Beethoven.   Each of his symphonies contributed enormously to the genre, and they are still looked upon as the pinnacle of symphonic writing.  Why do they still mean so much to us?  In this course, we will examine these works in detail, concentrating on the aesthetic, formal, technical and musico-philosophical innovations which make them such incomparable and wonderful works.  We will attempt to answer the above questions and many more about this important, stimulating, intriguing, exciting, and fun body of work.  Registration is limited to 25 students.
