Abstract

Fourteen subjects, approximately 50-60 years of age, participated in a six-session, pre-retirement planning workshop held on the campus of Thiel College. Topics covered during the twohour, weekly sessions were attitudes toward aging and retirement; financial planning; desirable retirement locations; use of leisure time, hobbies and skills; holistic health; and legal affairs. Information on these topics was obtained through large and small group discussions, resource speakers, and homework assignments. Participants gave high evaluations to most aspects of the workshop. It was concluded that Lutheran college campuses can be good sites for pre-retirement planning workshops and that these workshops can be beneficial to the colleges as well as to the participants. Comparison of this workshop with similar ones and modifications of the workshop are also discussed.
