SPRING 2026 UMDRFA Events

Spring 2026 Seminars & Webinars!

UMDRFA announces Silver Terp Seminars and UMDRFA Webinars. Silver Terp Seminars are by retired UMD faculty. They focus on scholarly subjects in all disciplines with a strong emphasis on presentations designed for a broad audience rather than for academic specialists.

UMDRFA Webinars focus on topics related to retirement.

All presentations are on Zoom. Announcement of specific links will be sent out a week or so before each talk to our various mailing lists.

We will have the list of seminars and webinars in mid-January. Be sure and check back so you can put these events on your calendars.
