MONDAY Why Discuss History’s Underdogs? - Series with Fred Johnson Monday, 9:30-11:30 a.m.

Fred Johnson, Ph.D., is associate professor of history at Hope College.

Their names are often forgotten but history’s underdogs have repeatedly paid the heaviest price for the progress and greatness they were never allowed to claim.

Jan. 8 – A Rent- a-Cop vs. the President - As a security guard, making his rounds at Washington, D.C.’s Watergate Hotel, Frank Wills noticed something odd on the evening of June 17, 1972. His call for police backup started a chain reaction that produced a Constitutional crisis that eventually ended a presidency.

Jan. 22 – They Fought Like

OLLI Monthly Book Club with Susan Lovell

Gentleman in Moscow,

by Amor Towles, is a delicious novel for the Olli Book Club to feast on. It’s an uplifting tale of the human spirit in the thick of Soviet tyranny and repression. It’s the tale of love and trust and hope.

It’s a window into Russian history from the Bolshevik Revolution to the death of Stalin. It’s full of literary allusions, it’s funny, moving and suspenseful. These characters will remind you that, to paraphrase Ann Frank, most Russians are really good people.

Situated halfway between Jerusalem and Ashkelon, the site is one of the largest excavations in the Middle East and is a fascinating place filled with a

richness of finds. In addition, because Dr. Arnold has traveled extensively in Israel, she will explore Israel from a tourist’s point of view telling about the Old City and even, and perhaps, most importantly, about the food.

Much of today’s

COURSES CONT. knowledge about Indians during the early periods is based on legend and memory, but by the early to mid-nineteenth century their lives were revealed in more detail through books, censuses, and vital statistics.

Call to register: 616.632.2430

Vigilantes have played important roles in many societies, movements, cultures and events. Some of these have been fictionalized and exaggerated, while others are real humans who have acted in ways both beneficial and harmful. The goal of this 3-week OLLI class is to begin understanding some of the symbolism, causes, effects, influence, and power of vigilantes in history.

Students will explore a wide range of issues: justice, right and wrong, the state, mythic belief and practice, symbolism, identity and power. This discussion will be inter-disciplinary in nature with material and theories from areas such as philosophy, sociology, anthropology, history, geography, political science, and cultural studies.

M: Bronze $51 Silver $42 NM: $60

It also saw the establishment of Intel, the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, the assassinations of MLK and RFK, the populist candidacy of Eugene McCarthy, and the highly contentious Democratic Convention in Chicago. The Tigers also won the World Series and Apollo 8 orbited the moon. How could so much – and more – happen in one year?

A Tale of Two Cities: Pittsburgh and Titusville Wednesday, 1:30-3:30 p.m.

1 Class – January 17 Joseph Zainea, former Grand Rapids 4

city manager from 1976-1981, holds his Masters in Urban Management from the University of Pittsburgh. He has taught classes in economic development, politics of budgeting and finance, and human resources management at GVSU, CMU and WMU. The growing economic strength of America’s major metropolitan areas and the decline of rural America pose disturbing implications for our politics, our culture and our economy. Pittsburgh and Titusville PA are examined as archetypes of communities across the USA where great wealth and poverty are being concentrated; resulting in inequalities that threaten the social fabric of the nation. Drawing on Richard Florida’s latest book, The New Urban Crisis, and available income and demographic data, Zainea will seek out your response to what he sees as the principal social challenge of our time: “winner take all urbanism” and continued rural decay.

M: Bronze $17 Silver $14 NM: $20

Pain is a very subjective/personal experience, yet we universally recognize painful stimuli when we experience or even see them. Pain tells us a lot about the external environment and the internal states of our bodies, and we use this information to inform us as to what types of activities or substances we should avoid. In this two-part course, Professor Bergman will delve into the topic of nociception (sense of pain), the neuroscience of pain, as well as the assessment and treatment of pain.

M: Bronze $34 Silver $28 NM: $40

Just below the surface of the 24 - hour news cycle spurred by morning tweets and evening scoops, a quieter, but perhaps bigger story is working its way through American politics. The two parties are changing, and President Trump’s election may be as much a result of larger shifts between Republicans and Democrats as it is a cause of them. The numbing changes are shaking the political scene and landscape. David will discuss what this means to future elections.

The Kingdom of Bhutan in the eastern Himalaya is among the world’s few remaining mystical, magical places. Hidden from external influences until just a few years ago, the tiny landlocked nation of mostly Buddhists continues to honor its traditional ways while also trying to enter the mainstream of the 21st century, cell phones, internet, and all. Bhutan is the nation which measures a concept known as “Gross National Happiness.” It is a stunningly beautiful place, and very remote.

Come get a glimpse of this truly special place with adventure traveler, Kate Dernocoeur, who walked 90 miles (and over two 16,000-foot passes) on her journey there in 2005.
