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.

CUE students pay a non-refundable annual fee of $35 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 QC Library reading rooms.

In addition to the CUE student fee, course fees are no more than $90 per 8-session course; shorter courses have lower fees.  Your canceled check is your receipt for all fees. See refund policy later in this brochure.

Dr. Samona Sheppard started the CUE program, and opened it 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.  Dr. Sheppard retired as Director of CUE in June 2002, after initiating, growing and nurturing this exciting program, and scheduling programs through Fall 2002.
