OLLI TUITION COURSES
MONDAY The Art and Science of Fulfilling Communication Monday 9:30-11:30 a.m. June 3 Steve Norman received his B.S. in communication from the University of Oregon. He works as a mentor, coach and peer support at the Kent County Community Mental health Authority. Steve has been trained in Gestalt-based coaching and is the author of the upcoming book, The Art of Impeccable Communication. As infants and toddlers, we naturally know how to assert our needs. We are bold and spontaneous. We cry, demand and as we mature, we begin to strategize: “How do I get what I need? How do I stay connected?” Later in life we may ask: “How do I become fulfilled?” Hopefully we develop a strategy that empowers us in the process of moving from felt need to fulfillment. A person’s communication style is the most visible aspect of this fulfillment strategy. The ultimate goal is that the strategy we develop not only does the work of fulfilling basic needs but enables us “to become everything one is capable of becoming.” M: Bronze $16 Silver $12 NM: $21 Location: Browne Center

COURSES CONT. where she created and oversees the website, historygrandrapids.org. She has received a State Award in Communications from the Historical Society of Michigan and the Albert Baxter Award from the Grand Rapids Historical Society. This course will examine the early life of Welsh and his entire political career from a neophyte city commissioner to a long-term mayor who suffered indignities. As one of the city’s most beloved and most defamed political figures, his contributions to the city as well as his tarnished reputation need serious examination in order to separate fact from fiction. If you think you know George Welsh, you may be surprised; if you don’t know him, you’ll meet a fascinating character. M: Bronze $35 Silver $30 NM: $42 Location: Browne Center
Making Sense of Our Senses Tuesdays, 1:30-3:30 p.m. June 4 & 11 Dr. Daniel Bergman is an associate professor of biomedical sciences at GVSU. His doctorate in neuroscience is from Bowling Green State University. His research is focused on sensory physiology and disorders. Our sensory systems give us great insight into our world by acquiring numerous stimuli and allowing our brains to then synthesize the information into what we call sensations and perceptions. Yet we know there is an immense amount of variability in normal functioning senses to the point that our perceptions of the external world can be quite different from others’. In addition, differences and changes in our senses over time can be used to diagnose and even potentially treat or prevent various neurological disorders. In this course, we will perform a variety of interactive demonstrations to reveal how each of our senses individually differs.
M: Bronze $35 Silver $30 NM: $42 Location: Browne Center
Saving and Changing Lives – One Story at a Time Tuesdays, 1:30-3:30 p.m. June 4, 11, 18 & 25 Pam Daugavietis was executive producer of The Gift of All: A Community of Givers, a 2009 documentary about how West Michigan has been shaped by a generation of generous citizens after WWII.

In a time of limited funding, what options does the Obama team have? M: Bronze $35 Silver $30 NM: $42 Location: Browne Center
Public Education Earns Failing Grades Wednesdays, 9:30-11:30 a.m. June 19 & 26 Glenn Barkan recently retired as a professor of political science and dean at Aquinas College. In addition to his professional writing, Barkan has written about politics in The Grand Rapids Magazine and The Grand Rapids Press, and has discussed politics on local television. All over the United States, but especially in cities, public education has failed to ensure an educated, effective, and well-trained workforce and citizenry. Our policies, or perhaps more accurately our lack of education policies, have created a mish mash of home-schooling, public, charter, parochial, and private schools which together reinforce our inequality, and fail to offer all of our kids the opportunities they deserve. This class will explore some of the reasons why we find ourselves here – from residential segregation to funding, to shifting educational fix-its. In what direction ought we move?

Robert Frost and T.S. Eliot: The Populist and the Charlatan? Wednesdays, 1:30-3:30 p.m. June 19 & 26 Rebecca Knack received her B.A. in English literature and her M.A. in Linguistics from the U of M. She taught English, Creative Writing and Theater for 21 years.
Pat’s talk will focus on the factors that make collector coins valuable such as metal content, date and mint mark, collector demand, condition, eye appeal, originality, counterfeits, etc. The presentation is designed to help the novice collector and provide basic knowledge for family members who wish to sell inherited collections. As with antiques, basic knowledge and knowing what questions to ask will maximize value upon sale. M: Bronze $16 Silver $12 NM: $21 Location: Browne Center
Robert Frost and T. S. Eliot were preeminent poets of the early twentieth century. They were contemporaries, but really had little use for each other. Frost, in Eliot’s view, was a sentimental minor poet and Eliot was, in Frost’s view, an elitist. How true were these assessments? We’ll look at a number of poems by each poet, considering their differences and the elements they had in common as well. Of particular interest might be the remarkable influence of Dante Alighieri on each. Their influence on contemporary poetry is significant, and we’ll also explore that.

Count Your Blessings: A Writing Workshop Thursdays, 1:30-3:30 p.m. June 6, 20* & 27 Miriam Pederson is recently retired as professor of English at Aquinas College. She has authored a poetry chapbook titled This Brief Light; in addition, she has been published in many poetry journals, anthologies and magazines. Miriam and her husband, Ron Pederson, have
exhibited sculpture and poetry together in many galleries over the last twenty years. Because the world is too much with us, as William Wordsworth reminds us, a need arises for us to focus more on the blessings of this life. Wordsworth also declares, “Thanks to the human heart by which we live/Thanks to its tenderness, its joys and fears…,” and this truth is what the workshop is about. Participants will be assigned to write either short creative prose pieces or poetry celebrating blessings received and given. Writings by an array of authors such as Wordsworth and Garrison Keillor will offer inspiration and ideas of how to articulate the many unique ways we are blessed.

Sailing Through Retirement: Eight Years Exploring the Mediterranean Thursday, 9:30-11:30 a.m. June 13 A recent Wall Street Journal feature on ordinary people doing extraordinary things once they retire from their day jobs highlighted Bill and Judy Stellin of Grand Rapids. The Stellins retired from their careers and planned to sail across the Atlantic and live on their boat for “a year or so” – the year turned into eight years. Join the Stellins as they share this enriching story of adventure, their trials and setbacks, and the people they met. You just might be inspired to plan your own retirement adventure! M: Bronze $16 Silver $12 NM: $21 Location: Browne Center
Why 27 Million People Attended the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair Thursday, 9:30-11:30 a.m. June 20 Tom Buettner has been giving his programs to West Michigan communities for 22 years. Tom is noted for presenting programs addressing a multiple of topics, each one presented in a refreshing manner. The 1893 Chicago World’s Fair displayed the latest advances both in engineering and science. Neon lights were introduced here, yet the automobile was still a thing of the future. Join Tom as his program makes the World’s Fair come alive. Learn how Michigan was a major contributor to the Fair – exhibiting its role in mining, lumbering, agriculture and manufacturing. Take a ride with Tom on the first Ferris Wheel ever built and you will understand why one half of the nation’s population visited during its six month stand. M: Bronze $16 Silver $12 NM: $21 Location: Browne Center
Who Are the American Friends? Quakers of America Thursdays, 1:30-3:30 p.m. June 20 & 27 Dr. Deborah Wickering, assistant professor of anthropology at Aquinas College, is a cultural anthropologist. In addition to teaching anthropology, Dr. Wickering also teaches women’s studies and writing. She is a member of the Quaker religion. Deb Wickering will give us insight and understanding of Quakerism which began in America on the East coast in the 17th and 18th centuries. During the 19th century, American Friends split into three groups that still exist: Liberal, Pastoral, and Conservative Quakers. The Liberal Quakers still maintain the
5
traditional practice of meetings based on expectant silence, but none of the surviving groups retain the wholeness of the original Quaker witness. And, very few wear the plain clothing of the past. You will learn much about this interesting religion. M: Bronze $35 Silver $30 NM: $42 Location: Browne Center
Wealth and the Arab Spring: Tensions in Saudi Arabia Thursday, 9:30-11:30 a.m. June 27 Dr. Roger Durham is the chair of the political science department at Aquinas. He teaches international relations and comparative political courses and coordinates the International Studies Degree. He has received the Outstanding Faculty Member from students numerous times and is an OLLI favorite. As movement toward public empowerment and more legitimate governance, the Arab Spring has helped “topple governments” in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. However, other Arab states have been effective in resisting such change. This course will discuss the political-economy of Saudi Arabia and how the Kingdom has been able to repel such dynamics. The “Tensions in Saudi Arabia” include economic inequality, a large expatriate population and reliance on foreign workers, discord around gender issues, dependency on foreign military alliances, and a realization oil export earnings will not last forever. However, maybe the greatest tensions revolve around the legitimacy of the House of Saud – the royal family. M: Bronze $16 Silver $12 NM: $21 Location: Browne Center

music. She has written about music of the Jewish left in North America, the Holocaust and Canadian musical nationalism. Benita is also a trained lyric soprano. This course will examine how a new genre called “Rock ‘n’ Roll” came to emerge in America in the 1950s. We will explore how the social, economic and political climate of the post-war era allowed for a new generation of baby-boomers to make surprising and unprecedented musical choices. We will also analyze how R&B, country, gospel and pop helped create a new musical hybrid. We will listen to the music of early rock ‘n’ roll legends such as Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and more. M: Bronze $35 Silver $30 NM: $42 Location: Browne Center
The Amazing Ecology and Cultural Tradition of Michigan’s Wild Rice Friday, 9:30-11:30 a.m. June 28
Benita Wolters-Fredlund is assistant professor of music at Calvin College, where she teaches courses on world music, popular music, and American
and history of Native Americans of the Great Lakes region. He has written three books including a Potawatomi-English dictionary. Wild rice (Manoomin) is a nutritious grain that was once widely harvested by Michigan Indian communities, and continues to be a central part of Great Lakes Indian culture. Manoomin is also an important source of food and habitat for a huge range of wildlife and critical component in the health of many of our region’s aquatic environments. In this class, we will be exploring the fascinating story of Michigan’s wild rice. We will take a photographic tour of a traditional Ojibwe rice camp at Lac Vieux Desert to learn how wild rice is harvested and processed, and examine ricing tools and equipment that have been used for centuries. The unique ecology and lifecycle of wild rice will be discussed as well as some of the present day environmental threats to this special resource.
