A Parking Tip:
If your class is in a Heintz Room starting with the letter HA then we recommend that you park on the EAST SIDE of the center.  If, however, your class is in HB117, then you will find it more convenient to park in the WEST LOT. Wherever you park, come with an open mind and the high expectation that a worthwhile class is waiting for you.

 

Dear Friends of LIFE,

Welcome to a new and engaging quarter of Learning Is ForEver. The Program Committee, under the continuing leadership of Bob Mayhew and the Senior Program Director, Chrisanne Pieper, is presenting a calendar of classes to excite even the most “snow bound—home bodies” among us. The Marketing and Membership Committee, with Paul Olander, continuing chair, is striving to broadcast the “best kept secret” to all our friends who have retired and anyone who has reached the double digits of 55 years. Membership is an opportunity for all of us to bring a friend to a class, share a brochure, or ask someone to join in on one of the many entertaining and informative day trips.

Some of the exciting options of the new quarter are:

• North Dakota State retired History Professor Gerald Anderson’s history classes
• RCTC’s John Tacinelli’s class on Greenland
• RCTC’s Dennis Lawler’s experiences in Venezuela

Former instructors sharing new learning opportunities include:

• Merlin Ricklefs is back with a course on Ethics
• Dr. Dallemand will be sharing an Update from Rochester Public Schools
• RCTC’s Chad Israelson will be discussing Pivotal Elections of American History
• Great Decisions—America’s longest-standing global affairs education program

The 2008-09 LIFE Board is committed to increasing our membership, finding new avenues of learning, searching for new presenters and instructors, and creating new opportunities for socializing. The Board welcomes new members, Mary Humke, Louise Terrill, Tom Brinkman, Jon Closson, and George Malkasian. We look forward to serving and seeing all of you at the Winter 2009 programs. Zip up those parkas, and “come on out.”

- Ione Schloegel, LIFE Board President
