Parking
Lifelong Learning members have the opportunity to park on campus for courses and events. The Mayborn Museum Complex offers free parking directly in front of the museum. The museum's parking lot is for museum visitors only. Parking is available at the Ferrell Center and McLane Stadium if our lot is full.
To avoid any parking tickets you can register your car for a visitor permit and follow the instructions for creating a visitor account. Baylor Parking Services requires vehicles to be registered and have a parking permit.
Vehicle registration and a free Visitor permit can be obtained by visiting Visit www.baylor.edu/parking, click on "My Parking Account" and follow the instructions for creating a visitor account your license plate number is needed to complete the process.

SIGs- Shared Interest Groups
Shared Interests Group (SIGS) are a free benefit of membership in Lifelong Learning. Members connect with each other through Shared Interest Groups that are member-led and centered around the interests of the group. Each group sets its own schedule and meeting locations, participants help lead discussions and a facilitator manages communication. SIGs are free, but LLL membership is required for participation. If you would like to join a Shared Interest Group, please email the corresponding name beside the SIG name.
Fall semester meetings are between September and January.

New SIGs
A new SIG group may be formed by a written request to the LLL President and/or Program Administrator. The request must include a list of at least five named LLL members who all wish to form a new group on a specific topic, and a designated group coordinator to serve as the leader. The topic of the group needs to be consistent with the norms of Baylor University, the Mayborn Museum, and Baylor’s Lifelong Learning Program. SIG group applications must be approved by the LLL Leadership Team.
To suggest a new Shared Interest Group, contact April Love A_Love@baylor.edu for more information.
