Going to a college tour, where the primary focus is the awesome extracurricular activities, is like going on a vacation to a beautiful city where you, personally, don't have to work that day.
I hate and despise the classic 'retirement commununity' - shuffleboard, anyone? Wow, a Guy Lombardo retrospective! Tony Bennet's in town! Hey, there's a special on stool softeners! - but if I ever found one that was 'college without (most of) the classes' -- I'd check it out.
Which makes me think: which colleges are redefining themselves to be attractive to multiple generations? Bet some are, for sure - heck, I recall reading about just that sort of effort, twenty years ago. Just got to keep the Silver Sneakers people away from the hip-hoppers...
