Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at California State University, Fullerton “A Continuing Learning Experience”

Welcome to OLLI Welcome to the exciting classes and activities offered during our spring semester. We invite you to join or extend your participation in the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at CSUF (OLLICSUF), our community with more than 1,500 members who are enjoying a life enriched by intellectual and social activities in a vibrant university environment. We are open to all retired and semi-retired adults with a love of learning. There are no prerequisites, exams, grades or degrees. Instead, we offer an atmosphere that fosters mutual exploration of new or lifelong interests. Our variety of personal backgrounds, occupations and areas of knowledge enriches our classrooms, and our lively discussions and social interactions spur lasting friendships. This “Blue Book” catalog exhibits our strengths. It is the result of collaboration by our Curriculum Committee, class coordinators, instructors, and many other volunteers. Yes, volunteers! An OLLI hallmark is that teachers are not compensated—most love teaching as much as we love learning—and instruction is contributed by guest speakers, top-notch CSUF faculty, and ourselves. All love the enthusiasm, genuine interest and real-life perspective OLLI members bring to class.

OLLI is entirely self-supporting, yet our membership fees are remarkably low. Thanks to our volunteer base, funding from the Bernard Osher Foundation, and private contributions, members have the privilege— and fun—of taking as many courses as they want, all for one fee. For more information about OLLI at CSUF, please pick up a copy of our new general brochure (the first in eight years), or view it online at http://tinyurl.com/olli-csuf-brochure.

About Us: The Basics Name and affiliation. OLLI-CSUF stands for Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at California State University, Fullerton. It is a 35-year-old lifelong learning program for retired and semi-retired adults, and an integral part of CSUF operating under the guidance of University Extended Education. We are affiliated with more than 115 other lifelong learning institutes in the United States, all part of major universities and funded in part by the Bernard Osher Foundation. Location: OLLI-CSUF is located in the Ruby Gerontology Center (RGC) on Gymnasium Drive in the northeast portion of campus near the Student Housing complex and the Gastronome dining facility. GPS location reference: 800 N State College Blvd, Fullerton, CA 92831. Mobile device map app reference: “Cal State Fullerton” or “Ruby Gerontology Service, Fullerton, CA.” See www.fullerton.edu/campusmap/ for a campus map. Learning spaces. Most OLLI classes and activities are held in the classrooms, auditorium, and computer labs of the Ruby Gerontology Center (RGC), on the CSUF campus. The RGC is the headquarters for our programs and is exceptionally well designed for the eclectic interests of OLLI’s learners. For example, our Shapiro Wing area, with moveable walls, can be divided into as many as four classrooms, becoming a concert space, a painting studio, and hosting a financial planning workshop, all in one day. We also use some nearby campus locations within a short walk, and hold a few classes at off campus locations in the area. Membership requirements. Anyone retired or semi-retired may join. Members from all backgrounds are welcome; neither a college education nor previous association with the university is a prerequisite for membership. The only requirement is a desire to learn. Curiosity never retires! Homework? Grades? Classes typically have no “homework” as you may remember it. There are a few classes—in areas such as language, literature, and book discussions— where some optional work or study outside of class will substantially enhance student learning.

Special Member Benefits OLLI members enjoy: Student status privilege, which includes: • A campus parking pass • Library access and checkout privileges • Use of secure campus Wi-Fi network • Discounts at campus bookstore Auditing CSUF courses: On a space available basis with instructor permission, no fee Athletics: Free admission for two to all CSUF-sponsored athletics events

“A Continuing Learning Experience”


OLLI Governance OLLI is a volunteer organization, guided by a Board of Trustees elected annually from the membership by the membership. The Board is responsible for OLLI’s curriculum, finances, events, and operation within university guidelines and its relationship with University Extended Education (UEE). General meetings of OLLI members are held several times a year to conduct business, convey information, and provide a forum for member exchange and feedback. Board meetings and those of other major committees are open to members and listed in “other activities” in the back of this catalog.

Joining / Registration / Fees To join, complete the three-page form in the center of this catalog and submit it with your membership fee during the Spring Preview, to the OLLI office in person at another date, or by mail to the address on the application and back cover. You may also pay online at olli.fullerton.edu/Register/Register.aspx once you submit your three-page form, in-person or by mail. Membership/enrollment fee, including a parking pass is: Spring and Summer: $180 Spring semester only: $135 Membership fees cover a campus parking pass and admission to all classes. Note: A very few classes may have limited enrollment, usually for space or equipment considerations (e.g., some computer classes), and if so, early signup will be advised. Fees also cover participation in other OLLl-CSUF activities with the exception of some activities for which special expenses are passed on at the lowest possible cost. These include Computer Education, Special Event trips, and some Study or Activity Groups as specified in this booklet.

Other Fee-Related Items Reservation forms for special programs or social activities are included in the monthly OLLI ChroniCLE newsletter, which will be emailed or mailed to you per your preference. Payment is required when reservations are made. Refunds are given until the deadline specified on the form, and thereafter if a substitute is found for the reservation-holder. Joining after the semester has begun? Semester fees for new members are pro-rated midway through the semester; generally, full fees are requested prior to mid-semester, fifty percent any time after. Consult office for details. Scholarships. Financial assistance is available, and requests/awards are strictly confidential.

Volunteerism / Interaction / Support OLLI in the University Community OLLI supports an emerging model of retirement with volunteerism as a core element, and the University welcomes members’ involvement in campus programs as individuals and as part of OLLI-organized efforts. Annually, more than 400 OLLI members volunteer in support of OLLI activities. Their efforts improve and expand OLLI programs and activities while ensuring that OLLI membership fees are affordable. By completing the form in the centerfold, you can indicate your potential interest in volunteering. Members also contribute thousands of hours in support of CSUF programs, including the Art Alliance, Friends of the Fullerton Arboretum, Music Associates, Patrons of the Library, CSUF Athletics, and others. The senior ushers at CSUF varsity baseball and basketball games are OLLI members, as are many who tend plants in the Arboretum and mentor students in numerous academic settings.

OLLI + CSUF students + Faculty = Collaboration OLLI-CSUF Collaboration Through the OLLl-CSUF Collaboration program, OLLI members share their life experiences and skills with members of the university community—to the benefit of all. Opportunities include tutoring, mentoring, evaluating, and sharing expertise with CSUF classes and individuals in both academic and career/professional pursuits. CSUF students and faculty benefit from our members’ accumulated knowledge and wisdom, and OLLI members enjoy the intellectual stimulation, the opportunity to remain productive, and “giving back” to the community. Learn how to get involved under “Other Activities” in this booklet, and on our website page at olli.fullerton.edu.

Programs for the newly retired and almost-retired Transition in Retirement New retirees or those approaching retirement have a special place at OLLI. Transitions in Retirement (TiR) is a series of programs for persons preparing for this next phase of their lives. Whether still working or not, you may not have enough weekday time to benefit from all OLLI courses. Transitions in Retirement addresses that with classes more to your convenience on weekends and during early morning, late afternoon, and evening hours. Transitions in Retirement Essentials classes on Saturday mornings are open to the public at no charge. This gives you a chance to “sample” what OLLI has to offer. Topics cover a wide range—from financial planning to health issues. Other TiR classes do require OLLI-CSUF membership. TiR offerings are specially marked in our course listings, and you can read more about our program on our website page at olli.fullerton.edu 12

Around and About OLLI How/Where do I Park? Parking privileges. A 24/7 parking permit is included at no additional charge with the OLLI membership, and you will be provided with a hangtag. OLLI members may park in any student-designated lot, with additional privileges in Lot J, adjacent to the Ruby Gerontology Center on the east. Lot J, with wheelchair access, is most convenient for our members with mobility concerns, so we ask that you park in other lots to save these fellow OLLI members a parking spot so they may participate in OLLI activities. Parking lots. Please read the Parking section of this booklet for details and advice. In general, we recommend Lot G (see map), a short walk or a free OLLI Trolley ride away during spring and fall semesters; at semester beginnings, it is always advisable to arrive early (by 9:30). Student Lot E and the State College parking structure often have spots on light undergraduate class days. Quick parking lot mnemonic: J=Just for OLLI. G=Good most of the time. E=Every now and then. PS (parking structures)=Possibility sometimes. Arboretum=Abstain; OLLI members in the Arboretum lot will be ticketed.

Can I Eat “in” or Near OLLI? Yes! Eating with other OLLI members is a good way to become acquainted. When members bring their lunch, they usually have company in Shapiro Wing A, in the patio near the kitchen, or at a table in the courtyard. Lunches may be stored in the kitchen refrigerator. In addition, sack lunches may be taken on bus trips when special luncheon arrangements have not been made. Within a two-minute walk are several other eating or snacking opportunities: The CSUF Gastronome, a cafeteria-style eatery, serves fresh, wholesome, cooked-from-scratch and prepared-to-order meals throughout the day. The CSUF Community Market, to the left of the Gastronome, stocks a wide array of packaged snacks and fresh produce, hot and cold beverages, foods, and sundries. Several more minutes away is the Titan Student Union, with a selection of fast-food (some healthy) franchises and other options; see asi.fullerton.edu/tsu/ foodServices.asp for details. While you’re in that neighborhood, you can also shop at the bookstore or Titan Shops with your student discount or do some banking at the ATMs or SchoolsFirst.

OLLI Office The OLLI office is in RGC Room 7 (see map). It is open weekdays from 8:30 am until 3:30 pm. Campus holidays are observed (see apps.fullerton.edu/AcademicCalendar/default.aspx).

Parking & OLLI Trolley Information Please consult the parking map in this booklet. OLLI-CSUF members may park in all CSUF student lots and parking structures, and also in Lot J, adjacent to the Ruby Gerontology Center and set aside exclusively for OLLI until 6:00 pm weekdays. Lot J is particularly convenient for our members with mobility concerns, so we ask that you keep this in mind when considering where to park on crowded days. When Lot J is full, Lot G, a short walk or Trolley ride to the RGC, is generally recommended. Lot G is located on the SW corner of Yorba Linda Blvd. and Associated Rd., next to Goodwin Field. Lot A almost always has available spaces, but it is farthest away. On lighter class days such as Fridays, Lot E can be a good choice and is just a short walk away. Please do not park in the Arboretum parking lot, even if your class is held at the Arboretum (such as Longevity Stick and Tai Chi). If you have an OLLI class at the Arboretum, park in Lot G. Arboretum parking space is very limited. Continued parking there by OLLI members could result in the loss of access to this wonderful facility for OLLI classes. OLLI Trolley. The OLLI Trolley is available Monday-Friday during spring and fall semesters (no summer service) to transport members between Lot G and the RGC, and many members prefer to walk. If you’re interested in volunteering as a Trolley driver, please apply in OLLI office. Note: Parking may be challenging during the first two to three weeks of each semester, while CSUF students’ schedules are settling, but it always improves shortly thereafter. During busiest times, it is advisable to arrive by 9:30 am for morning classes. Members are required to display an OLLI-CSUF parking pass whenever they park on campus. By the Alphabet: CSUF Lots Available to OLLI Members: • Lot A: OLLI permits are valid in portions of Lot A. Please check signs before parking. Do not park in Lot A-South, because this is a faculty-staff parking lot. • Lot D: OLLI permit is valid in this student parking lot. • Lot E: OLLI permits are valid in portions of Lot E. Please check signs before parking. Do not park in Lot E spaces marked for faculty-staff parking. • Lot G (recommended): OLLI permit and daily parking permit are valid. • Lot H: For disabled and faculty/staff only. Please see “Disabled Person Parking” below. • Lot J: This lot is reserved only for OLLI members with an OLLI Parking Permit until 6:00 pm Monday-Friday, when faculty/staff permits are then also valid. Parking is not permitted in Lot J from 1:00 am - 6:00 am. • Emeriti or University support permits are not valid in Lot J, and citations will be issued to those cars that do not exhibit an OLLI parking permit. See those permits for restrictions. • Lot RH: OLLI permit is valid in this student housing parking lot. • Lot S: OLLI permit is valid in this student lot.

LITERARY ARTS Book Clubs There are two separate clubs to choose from—see times and locations below. Like reading books and talking about life and happiness? Then these could be the groups for you. We come together for one common interest—books. Yet, in exploring the stories or history together, we will discover we have so much more in common as well. We don’t follow one genre or one author, but try to find new areas to branch into each month. We may invite OLLI authors with manuscripts ready for publication. We don’t break the stories down, clinically, piece by piece. Instead, we prefer to discuss the story in general terms and how it relates to us.

Alternate Mondays Book Club

Alternate Mondays • 12:15 pm–2:00 pm • Room 9 January 26 • February 9, 23 • March 9, 23 • April 13 The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion will be discussed—please read before the first meeting. Coordinators: Kitty Baier and Lisa Sewell

We don’t teach you how to do it, but provide the opportunity for you to practice writing by writing. We have an assigned topic on which you have two weeks to work, and then a topic for a “quick write” at each session. Class members are also invited to participate in leading sessions and selecting topics for those sessions. We encourage members to share their written assignment in class, so we ask that it be kept to about 500 words. Come join us. It is lots of fun! Coordinators: Juanita Driskell and Rayleen Williams

Alternate Tuesdays • 12:30 pm–2:00 pm • Room 21 January 20 • February 3, 17 • March 3, 17 • April 7 Classes begin with a brief lecture/discussion on topics relative to fiction writing, such as plot, point of view, setting, or character development. This may be followed by a timed practice writing to an idea. As time allows, participants may read from a short work or a few pages of a novel. Feedback may address questions such as: Does it hook the reader? Does it evoke emotion? What is the conflict? Is the message clear? What about the format? Is it correct? Participation is not required. The goal of the class is to demystify the process of how fiction is created, and to encourage participants to explore their own creativity in this field.

Today, many French people in tourist areas speak English. Then why study French? To put a smile on their faces and to demonstrate appreciation for their culture. To create a positive atmosphere for communication you do not need a lot of French, but you need to pronounce the French expressions that you do know the “French way.” French 1 emphasizes pronunciation and basic conversation. It is suggested that students bring a French-English dictionary to class. Living Language French, Essential Edition is a text with CDs that the class uses as supportive material. It can be easily acquired through Amazon, and is quite affordable. Instructor: Gabriella Kolias

Yet, children do so with great ease. Why is this? The answer seems to be that children “acquire” language as presented on a daily basis by parents, siblings, friends, media, etc. Adults, however, tend to want to learn a foreign language using formulas and structure as bedrock. While this is of the utmost importance later… in the beginning, children learn organically. The language simply develops from seed to flower. Let’s become children once again! Bring your sense of wonder and leave your adult with the babysitter. The Spanish 1 textbook, Barron’s Learn Spanish the Fast and Fun Way by Gene Hammitt (3rd Edition) is optional for this class.

We will be viewing an Academy Award winning film, which culminates with that event, directed by Franklin J. Schaffner. What follows is the unfortunate story of how monarchy becomes a provisional government only to be overthrown by a small minority who called themselves a majority, or Bolsheviks. “One man” rule returns in the person of Lenin and later, Stalin.

March 24 Speaker: Dr. William Havlicek, Professor of Art History, Laguna College of Art & Design Coordinator: Janice Jeng Dr. William J. Havlicek discusses how the art of Spain has undeniable power and authority and has influenced the entire history of art to an extraordinary degree. After returning from a recent trip to several museums in Spain, Dr. Havlicek reveals how El Greco and Goya absorbed the cultural influences of their time and in turn impacted Picasso’s cubist vision and Sorolla’s dazzling virtuosity. He also describes how iconic American painter Thomas Eakins experienced a life-changing artistic transformation after studying the Spanish masters on exhibit in the Prado Museum in Madrid. A discussion of contemporary artists will demonstrate just why the art of the Spanish masters is timeless and ever ripe for reinterpretation. 42

The Space Between Men: Shifting Meanings of Men’s Relationships with Each Other April 14 Speaker: John Ibson, Professor of American Studies, CSUF Janice Jeng

Coordinator:

The various relationships that American men have with each other—in families, in the workplace, as teammates, as members of the armed forces, as friends, and as lovers—have changed drastically over the past century and a half. These changes in men’s relationships have reflected changes in the very nature of American masculinity itself. The presentation will rely largely on photographic evidence from Professor Ibson’s book, Picturing Men: A Century of Male Relationships in Everyday American Photography. Particular emphasis is on the midcentury years, when the author and many members of this audience grew up.

The Study of Twins

March 5 Speaker: Dr Nancy Segal, Professor, Department of Psychology Coordinator: Pete Lech The Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart (MISTRA), launched in 1979 at the University of Minnesota, was a psychological and medical assessment of 137 separated twin pairs (81 MZA and 56 DZA). The study, which lasted twenty years, produced over 170 scientific publications, with new analyses currently underway. Given the comprehensiveness of the project, many people are unaware of the multitude of studies published in diverse psychological, physiological, and medical journals. Born Together-Reared Apart; The Landmark Minnesota Twin Study (2012) presents an overview of the origins, methods, findings, implications, and controversies from this important study, reviewed in this talk.

Culture of Hawaii—A Voice for Sovereignty

March 19 Speaker: Catherine Bauknight, Documentary Filmmaker and Photojournalist Coordinator: Janice Jeng Our presentation will consist of an award-winning film “A Voice for Sovereignty,” which is the untold story of the long struggle of the Hawaiian people, the Kanaka Maoli (people of the land), following the 1893 overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii by U.S. businessmen and military forces, and their attempt to regain their social and economic sustainability. This is a revealing message to the world about what happens when a sustainable society is separated from their land and ocean resources and converted for profit by a western power.

April 9 Speaker: Kathlyn (Kara) Kooney, Associate Professor of Egyptian Art and Architecture at UCLA Coordinator: Janice Jeng A woman’s power in the ancient world was always compromised from the outset. Complex societies are inherently based on masculine dominance, forcing female rulers to resort to familiar methods to gain power. Some female rulers, like Cleopatra, used their sexuality to gain access to important men and bear their children. Some women, like Hatshepsut, gained their position as the regent and helper of a male king who was too young to rule. Almost no evidence of successful, long-term female leaders exists from the ancient world—in the Mediterranean, Near East, Africa, Central Asia, or East Asia. Only the female king of Egypt, Hatshepsut, was able to take on formal power for any considerable length of time, and even she had to share power with a male ruler. Given this social reality, how did Hatshepsut negotiate her leadership role? How did she rule “behind the throne” before her accession? This lecture will work through the ample evidence for Hatshepsut’s reign in an attempt to find the woman behind the statues, monuments, stelae, and obelisks.

Byzantine Empire: The Comnenus Dynasty Years

February 26 and March 12 A powerful family, the Comnenus, starting with Alexius, seized the throne and put an end to over a half-century of inattentive and listless emperors who squandered the inheritance of Basil II and left the Roman world in tatters. The family reigned for a century and worked against difficult odds to restore prosperity and stability to the empire after the disastrous defeat at Manzikert.

Byzantine Empire: The Conquest of Constantinople by the Crusaders in 1204

March 26 and April 16 Passing through the Byzantine territories, the Crusaders paused outside Constantinople to obtain food and supplies before proceeding to Jerusalem. But the temptation presented by the wealthiest city in the world proved irresistible to the Crusaders and Venetians who were charged by Christendom with the task of recovering the Holy Lands. Despite a vigorous defense by the Romans in the city, the Crusaders successfully scaled the walls. The pillaging and looting went on for days, resulting in thousands of citizens dying or fleeing. The emperor wandered through the countryside seeking refuge while Baldwin of Flanders became the first Latin Emperor. The destruction of art and literature accumulated since the founding of Constantinople in 330 A.D. is one of the great catastrophes in history.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Archaeology: The Etruscans, the People Before the Romans Alternate Tuesdays • 2:15 pm–3:45 pm • Mackey Auditorium Instructor: Bonnie Shirley Coordinator: Patti Chikahisa

Who Were the Etruscans?

January 20 They spoke a distinct language, not linked to any other modern language. Where were they from, and how long had they lived in Tuscany? We know them only by their grave goods, and the written reports of early Roman historians. Once on the verge of greatness, they were overtaken by the Romans.

The Villanovan Culture

February 3 Migrating south from Central Europe, these master iron workers may be the origin of the Etruscans. Their culture began to change after contact with the Greeks.

The Growth of the Etruscan Culture

February 17 They expanded through central Italy. The Etruscan language is unique, but uses a Greek alphabet. Etruscan work was influenced by Greek art, but they were master workers in bronze, gem carving, and ivory.

Conflict With the Greeks

March 3 The growth of the Etruscan culture put it into conflict with Greek colonies. They allied themselves with the Carthaginians of North Africa, who had once been a colony of the Phoenicians.

The Romans Ascend Over the Etruscans

March 17 Did the Romans conquer them or absorb them? How much did the Etruscans influence Roman civilization?

Etruscan Art

April 7 Etruscan art is often obtained from grave goods, and demonstrates emotion as well as beauty.

You will hear about current and predicted changes to the world’s ecosystems and their effects on us, our children, and succeeding generations. This program is intended for the lay audience; advanced mathematics will not be needed to understand the presentations, although graphs will often be used. Topics are based on current and timely science and technology reporting. Presentations include various types of multimedia graphics, including videos, slides, and animations. References to media sources and URLs for online resources will be made available. Coordinators: Bryce Bardin, Fran Mathews, Dennis Fassnacht, and Grace Bertalot

“When my mother suffered a stroke and was wheelchair bound, she did not want to return to OLLI classes. She was persuaded to try it just one time. When she arrived, the whole class greeted her on walkers, canes, wheelchairs and crutches. That is the humanity and caring that OLLI is to me.” -Barbara Talento

Science for You: Understanding the Brain

Every Thursday • 2:30 pm–4:30 pm • Pine 111 January 22*, 29 • February 5, 12, 19, 26 • March 5, 12, 19, 26 • April 9, 16 Everything that goes on inside your body and every interaction you have with the outside world is controlled by your brain. Considering everything the brain does, how can this relatively small mass of tissue possibly be the source of our personalities, dreams, thoughts, sensations, utterances, and movements? This Great Courses DVD lecture series takes you inside this astonishingly complex organ and shows you how it works, from the gross level of its organization to the molecular level of how cells in the brain communicate. With its combination of neurology, biology, and psychology, this course will help you understand how we perceive the world through our senses-how we move, how we learn and remember, and how emotions affect our thoughts and actions. This course is designed specifically for those without a background in science. Each class consists of two lectures; after each lecture you’ll have a chance to ask questions and discuss the information that’s been presented. *On January 22 only, class meets in CD. (Note: This course will continue through the Summer session.) Coordinators: Rick Hearn & Susan Hanna

PHOTOGRAPHY CLASSES Introduction to Digital Photography

Alternate Thursdays • 10:00 am–11:30 am • Room 21 January 29 • February 12*, 26 • March 12*, 26 • April 16 This course will examine how a digital camera works and will explore photographic techniques such as composition, exposure, and depth of field. The course goal is to provide the knowledge for you to improve your photographs. Expect to take photographs on class assignments and on your own. *On these days, this class will start at 10:15 am, after the OLLI Board meeting.

For each hour-and-a-half meeting, members are asked to submit three photos on a specific theme. A portion of each meeting is devoted to review of these photos. Members, many of whom have years of experience and expertise as photographers, offer suggestions on composition and technique. At some meetings, Phocus Club members present mini-lessons on camera usage and technical aspects of photography. We also schedule local professional photographers to show their work and talk about their experiences. Coordinators: Don Lake, David Fromson, and Rick Hearn

“One of the neat classes I took last year was drawing for the fun of it. I reached 70 years with no attempt to draw. OLLI has many accomplished artists in class. However, myself and other beginners were made to feel welcome and encouraged by our classmates and instructor. I have a long way to go, but will be back. From this class I learned to reallly look at things in a new way.” -Warren Wilson

IMPORTANT: COMPUTER EDUCATION REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Course Sessions, Registration Procedures, and Course Codes The OLLI-CSUF Computer Education program enables members to learn Macintosh and Windows computer applications as well as applications (apps) on mobile devices. Unlike most OLLI courses, which last an entire semester, computer classes are presented in three different four-week sessions. Some popular classes—for example, those covering mobile devices and accessing campus WiFi—are offered during more than one session. If their word title is identical, so is their content—that is, a second-session course of the same name as one in the first is not a continuation of, or at a higher level than, the first. Given space limitations, pre-registration in the OLLI office is required; and because of the need to maintain hardware, software, and other equipment in the computer labs, computer and mobile devices classes assess modest fees (see course descriptions for specifics). Pre-registration begins two weeks before the beginning of a session: Session 1: January 26 − February 13 Office pre-registration begins January 12. Session 2: February 17 − March 13 Office pre-registration begins February 2. Session 3: March 16 − April 17 Office pre-registration begins March 2. How to register for a computer or mobile devices class: 1. Pick up a four-colored carbonless Computer Class Pre-registration form in the OLLI office, and fill it in COMPLETELY. 2. Ask the office to stamp the date and time on the form because, in many instances, first-come-first-served may be the basis for participation if a class is oversubscribed. 3. Staff will keep the top (white) copy of your completed date/timestamped form. 4. Take the remaining time-stamped copies of the form to the first meeting and obtain a signature from the instructor. Instructors will work with you to determine if the class is appropriate for you. 5. Take the instructor-signed forms to the OLLI office and make your payment. Be sure the OLLI office signs off that you have paid. They will keep the yellow copy of the form. 6. Give the pink copy of the form to the instructor as a record that you have paid. The goldenrod copy is your receipt for payment. Guide to course codes: We use codes to designate: (1) the class level or format; (2) the operating system; and (3) whether or not the class is offered during more than one session per semester. The code will help you to identify courses likely to be most helpful to you, and it’s helpful in referring to your computer courses.

Southeast Asia in January on a Relatively Small Ship March 5 Speaker: Joyce Ono

Join a group of OLLI members on their journey to Southeast Asia. Share their visits to Hong Kong, Vietnam, Thailand, and Singapore on a 700-passenger cruise through the warm China Sea. They visited markets and fishing villages in Hong Kong, experienced the aftermath of the Vietnam War, and crouched in the Cu Chi tunnel network near Ho Chi Minh City. Hoi An was an opportunity to learn how to make a yummy Vietnamese meal. While in Bankok, Thailand the group was literally and figuratively “taken for a ride” on three-wheeled tuktuk taxis. There was even time for the presenter to capture scenes of the trip in watercolor paintings. (Please note: this trip was not organized through OLLI-CSUF.)

Every Friday • 3:30 pm–5:30 pm • Shapiro ABCD January 23, 30 • February 6, 13, 20, 27 • March 6, 13, 20, 27 • April 10 (no class April 17**) • *April 24 • May 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 Poker is a game of skill, which emphasizes the ability to read situations and opponents to give you the advantage in every hand you play. It is also a game utilizing statistics and mathematics, where one should be able to calculate the odds of either you or your opponent winning the hand in various situations. It cannot be assumed that people who utilize statistics and mathematics will be winning players, but a sound knowledge of odds can only improve your game and give you an advantage. Each week the variations of poker will be introduced and practiced. We play games of “Dealer’s Choice” and “Texas Hold’em.” This class is a lot of fun with great camaraderie among the players. There is a small charge for snacks and beverages. Some members go out to dinner together after class. Hope to see you there. If you don’t know how to play, we’ll teach you how in the Introduction to Poker class above. *This class continues to meet during the intersession on the dates following the asterisk above. **No class April 17 in deference to In Memoriam gathering.

Strategy of Scrabble

Decades of play affirm that word-games strengthen your vocabulary, while sharpening your wit through vocabulary expansion and Scrabble tactics. Dictionaries come off the shelves, brains are taxed, and minds engaged. Whether you are new to the game, have played in a former life, or are an expert, come, learn, and have fun. Strategy tips will be provided each week to practice and improve your game. There is no charge, and a few extra boards and tiles will be available. If you have your own equipment then so much the better. *This class continues to meet during the intersession on the dates following the asterisk above.

Together we take a close look at all aspects of the aging experience and learn to change that which can be changed and to accept that which cannot. In the process, we laugh a lot and really get to know one another. Instructors: Class students Coordinators: Phil Barnhard, Barbara Talento, and Stalky Lehman

Special Events Registration Policy Who goes? How are they chosen? Special events are open to members only. Should an event not fill by the stated deadline, non-members may register with OLLI approval. Registration for a special event begins one week after the mailing of the ChroniCLE first announcing the event, and payments and coupons for a special event will be accepted at the time of registration. Registration forms will be entered on a first-come, first-served basis. Once an event is full, a waiting list will be created, also on a first-come, first-served basis. The office notifies only those individuals who could not be included in an event, and the office refunds their payments. If you want confirmation that you have been included on the list for an event, check the event lists posted on the bulletin board outside the office. Refunds of payments of those who are registered for an event but are unable to attend will be made as long as no cost is incurred by the organization. If a registered participant is unable to attend an event, he or she should notify the OLLI office at least two business days before the event. If there is a waiting list for the event, a replacement will be registered from the waiting list, and a refund will be made to the participant who is unable to attend. If you have any questions regarding the special events policy, please contact the office at 657-278-2446.

Notes on Curriculum / Format / Frequency Classes fall into these general categories: educational lectures, discussion groups, current events and public affairs presentations, self-directed study groups, computer education, healthy living activities, and crafts, arts, and music. OLLI’s Curriculum Committee considers member requests in the planning of each semester’s offerings. Class formats include those in which members learn from each other, as well as guest lecturers such as community leaders, university professors, and other leading authorities. All classes and programs are coordinated by OLLI members. Lecture/Discussion classes and programs may include OLLI members as instructors, as well as guest lecturers and presenters. Presentations are generally followed by a coffee break and a “Q and A” session. “Study” classes, such as language and literature, are enhanced by some study or work outside class. Frequency varies, so be sure to check your Blue Book. Other programs include special events, field trips, member dinners, and other activities, some of which require a modest payment.
