Having been recognized as a legitimate war hero, served as a New York City Police Commissioner, Governor and Vice President, he had many professional accomplishments.

Book must be read before attending any of the classes below.

The History Behind ‘1984 ‘

Presenter: Dr. Art Pitz What is the history behind why this book was written?

A common question prior to World War II was: Could it happen here? What did it mean? Why did this concern re-emerge after World War II? All attendees are encouraged to read a copy of “1984” prior to attending this session.

The Plot, the Characters and is it Reality?

A Retrospective on the Vietnam War(s)

New

Terra Incognita

Presenter: Dr. Art Pitz What Americans came to know as the Vietnam War had deep historical roots that were virtually unknown to those top American officials charged with making so many complex post-World War II decisions. Few, if any, knew anything of Vietnam’s previous wars, overall history, language and culture. We will delve into that history and uncover those roots that led to tragic misconceptions.

CRN 11320 Outreach - Rm. 407 Fee $10

Riding the Tiger’s Back

Tragedy Ensues

36

Presenter: Dr. Art Pitz The Vietnam War was the first televised conflict. It was on the evening news almost every night. What role did that play in ultimately bringing down two presidents and to an unplanned, chaotic exit after so many casualties? Could that war have been won? What have been the lasting consequences of the war?

1 Wednesday Mar. 27 9:30 - 11:30 a.m.

CRN 11322 Outreach - Rm. 407 Fee $10

Presenter: Dr. Art Pitz Let’s explore the plot and characters of “1984.” How much of this plot was based on reality at the time the book was written and how much was speculative? We will view some clips of the classic film “1984” released in 1984 as part of our discussion.

1 Wednesday Apr. 17 9:30 - 11:30 a.m.

CRN 11324 Outreach - Rm. 407 Fee $10

Why is this classic still relevant today?

Presenter: Dr. Art Pitz How relevant is this book to us today? Many phrases and words such as Big Brother, doublethink, thought crime and memory hole have entered into common language since its publication in 1949. The adjective Orwellian, which describes official deception, secret surveillance and manipulation of recorded history by a totalitarian or authoritarian state, was made popular in 1948.
