Welcome to Talk of Ages

Within the next 30 years, the U.S. Census Bureau estimates that the population of adults aged 65 and above will double in size. Despite this significant age shift, the changing age population and its far-reaching implications are often overlooked in college classes.

Talk of Ages seeks to be a catalyst for changing this age-deprived state of education by offering college instructors resources for integrating aging content and intergenerational activities into their courses.
