There is so much misunderstanding about Islam in our society. Through the Veritas courses, we have been able to give accurate information about Islam in various contexts. This has generated not only a positive interest in learning more about Islam and its relationship to Christianity and Judaism, but also made the students aware of the contributions Islam has made to Western civilization. A better understanding of a different religion – especially one that is generally perceived negatively – has enriched and enlightened our community in multiple ways.
Since 1995, Veritas has offered the pre-eminent learning experience to people over 54 in the Louisville area. Our mission is to keep our minds active open and growing. We are retired or semi-retired people – doctors, educators, homemakers, office workers, administrators, artists, and executives. The Veritas Society is governed by a Board of Directors elected by the membership. Membership is currently over 400.
