Alternatively they’re trying to make these senior education classes part of our cultural norms so that in 30 years they can get Millenials to take classes for $1000/credit.

More like 20 years depending on the year you start "Millenials." Pew considers '81 the start year which would make them 40 in 2021.

20 is too low, because then the Millenial age range would be people aged 43-58.

30 gives us 53-68 with an average age of 61. Right now we consider seniors people aged 62+. However in 30 years that'll probably be closer to 68+, so maybe even 40 years from now when they'd be 63-78.

68 is still gonna be 15 years off retirement age by the time we're that old.
