Anyone know any good euphemisms for old age? We're trying to come up with a category of benefits for older individuals without being unnecessarily offensive.
One thrown out there is "Alumni".
Any other ideas?

7. Mature. Non-traditional (as in students). Active, as in "active adult." |

FYI, you become an active adult at 50. :-)
