ADULT EDUCATION

Autonomous University of Lancaster
AUL is an ideal, a banner under which a group of staff and students self-organise educational settings that are not limited by demands of the market. The aim of AUL is to offer free seminars, lectures, workshops and whatever else you can imagine that is too narrow, too political, too hot or too different for the general academic curriculum in mainstream institutions. AUL is a growing network of people from around the world. The AUL holds regular Thursday lectures at the Friends Meeting House, Lancaster (see events listings).
