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 fall semester. We invite you to join or extend your participation in the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at CSUF (OLLI-CSUF). Our community has 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.

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.

About Us: The Basics Name and affiliation. OLLI-CSUF stands for Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at California State University, Fullerton. It is a 37-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 Center, 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 your learning. Membership includes a campus parking pass and the following: • Library access and checkout privileges • Use of the campus WiFi network • Free admission for two to most CSUF-sponsored athletics events • A uditing CSUF courses on a space-available basis with instructor’s permission Note: The above membership privileges are subject to modification by campus administration.

“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.

The Leo Shapiro Connection
Do you ever wonder why the south end of the Ruby Gerontology Center is named the Shapiro Wing? It’s because Leo Shapiro is considered OLLICSUF’s founding father. In 1978 David Walkington and Betty Robertson of the California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) Extended Education Department proposed the establishment of an outreach program for senior citizens to access lifelong learning. Betty recruited Leo Shapiro, and the three of them recruited community leaders and CSUF faculty members, who became the founding committee, comprised of Florence Arnold, Russell Ball, Ernest Lake, Lucien Miner, E. Ray Nichols and Charles Ruby, along with David Walkington, Betty Robertson and Leo Shapiro. 4

“A Continuing Learning Experience”
Betty told Leo about a program called The Institute of Continued Learning at UC San Diego, one of the few such programs at that time. They went to San Diego to learn about it, which became the model for the Continuing Learning Experience, or “CLE,” now known as the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at CSUF, or OLLI-CSUF. CLE began operation in 1979 with Leo Shapiro as its first president. CSUF granted CLE the use of Mahr House (now Golleher Alumni House), but they soon outgrew that facility. Leo and other CLE leaders decided that, rather than limiting membership, they would request some land on the campus where they could build a new facility for CLE. Charles Ruby and his wife, Rachael, told Leo they would pledge $100,000 to the project. With that backing Leo convinced Dr. L. Donald Shields (then president of CSUF) that the CLE facility could also be used for a gerontology program, a first in Orange County, and only the second such program in all of California. The University granted CLE the use of 2.3 acres just to the south of the Arboretum, where the Ruby Gerontology Center (RGC) now sits. Shapiro and his committee solicited donations and grants from many individuals, corporations, foundations and municipalities. Leo used an office at Langsdorf Hall, where he worked full time for over four years on the project. Although no money came from the university or the state, Dr. Cobb (who succeeded Dr. Shields as CSUF president) helped Leo and his committee members with presentations to potential donors. An Honor Board, listing the benefactors, now hangs on the wall of the Shapiro Wing of the RGC. Leo was very proud of the fact that, of the $2 million raised for the building, $700,000 was donated by CLE members. In 2005 OLLI threw a big 100th birthday celebration for Leo, commissioning his bust, which is located in the hallway to the kitchen in the Shapiro Wing. It is reported that Leo, who was a bit of a curmudgeon, took one look and announced that it didn’t look like him. Someone put black-rimmed glasses on the bust, and everyone agreed—now it looks like Leo. To this day, the glasses remain part of the bust.

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. 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.
OLLI-CSUF Collaboration OLLI + CSUF students + Faculty = Collaboration Through the OLLI-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.
Transition in Retirement Programs for the newly retired and almost-retired 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.

Around and About OLLI How/Where do I Park? Parking privileges. A 24/7 parking permit is included at no additional charge with your 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. Do not park in the Arboretum parking area or the student housing parking area. For more information, see the Parking & OLLI Trolley Information section.
Can I eat in or near OLLI? Yes! Eating with other OLLI members is a good way to become acquainted. When members bring their lunches, 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 Shapiro Wing A, but must be removed by Friday of each week. 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, an all-you-can-eat buffet for one price, serves fresh, wholesome, cooked-from-scratch and prepared-to-order meals throughout the day. The CSUF Community Market, directly across from 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 fastfood (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 Credit Union. The Community Market and Student Union food court currently offers a 10 percent discount if you show your current OLLI membership card (this discount is subject to change or elimination at any time).
OLLI Office The OLLI office is in RGC Room 7 (see map). It is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. until 4 p.m.. Campus holidays are observed. (see apps.fullerton.edu/AcademicCalendar/default.aspx). The office phone number is 657-278-2446, and OLLI’s general information email is olli-info@fullerton.edu. Staff members are Patsy Burns (Manager, Administration), Celia Reynolds (Administrative Assistant) and Ying Lu (Accounting Assistant).

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 p.m. 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. Members are required to display an OLLICSUF parking pass whenever they park on campus. When Lot J is full, Lot G, a short walk or OLLI 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 an OLLI 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 a.m. for morning classes. 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 or in spots marked for government vehicles only. • 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 p.m. Monday-Friday, when faculty/staff permits are then also valid. Parking is not permitted in Lot J from 1 to 6 a.m.. • 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 S: OLLI permit is valid in this student lot. 16

Avoid a ticket: Members are required to display an OLLI-CSUF parking pass whenever they park on campus. Please be sure to check all parking signs to make sure your OLLI permit is valid where you are parking; it is not valid in faculty/staff lots, student housing lots and Arboretum lot, and you will receive a citation there. Please note OLLI permits are not transferable. This means that the permit can only be used by the OLLI member who purchased it. Note that the following parking restrictions are enforced 24 hours every day: • Red curbs/fire lanes • 15-minute time zones • Service/maintenance stalls • Loading zones/white and yellow curbs • Disabled permit parking stalls What if I forget my parking pass or get a ticket? OLLI members with valid parking permits are allowed complimentary daily permits up to twice per month, if you forget your hangtag. Stop by the Visitor Information Center near the OLLI Trolley pick-up at Lot G, or call 657-278-3082. Members parked in valid parking areas, who receive a ticket for not displaying their parking permit are allowed one dismissal per semester. If you get a ticket, go to the Parking and Transportation Office (T-1400), from Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.5 p.m., located at State College Blvd. and Corporation Drive, just north of Gymnasium Drive, and complete the paperwork. The full procedure for paying or contesting a parking ticket is described at http://parking.fullerton.edu/ parking/Tickets.asp. Visitor Parking A limited number of 30-minute visitor parking areas are available on campus. For longer visits, a daily permit may be purchased for $8 in the machines in Lots A, G, S, and Arts Drive, and on levels 2, 4, and 6 of the State College parking structure. Daily permits are valid in all student parking lots and structures during enforcement days/hours, but are not valid in Lot J, adjacent to the RGC. Disabled Person Parking Disabled person parking is available throughout the campus, including Lots J and H, either side of the RGC, which are both ramp-configured. You must have both a valid OLLI parking permit (or other valid campus-parking permit) and a DMV-issued disabled parking placard/license plate to use these spots. Additional Information For additional information on parking, please check with the OLLI office, see the CSUF Parking and Transportation webpage at parking.fullerton.edu, or call 657-278-3082. You can even check online for the current number of available spaces in parking structures.

“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 really look at things in a new way.” -Warren Wilson

LANGUAGES Please Note: “French 1” and “Spanish 1” are intended for beginning students from fall thru summer semesters. Our other OLLI language classes are “ongoing” and do not “start over” every year as they may in a high school or a university setting. After a year of “French 1” or “Spanish 1,” students have the option of moving on to “French 2” or “Spanish 2” or to remain in “French 1” or “Spanish 1” for a refresher course that will start over in the fall. We do not give placement tests, so newcomers to language classes are welcome to sample classes and stay with any or all that suit their level of proficiency.

Today, many French people in tourist areas speak English. Then why study French? To demonstrate appreciation for their culture and thus put a smile on their faces. To create a positive atmosphere for communication you do not need a lot of French, but it’s important to pronounce those expressions that you do know the “French way”. Therefore this course emphasizes pronunciation rather than grammar.

Since this is a one-year, beginner’s course, preference must be given to students who start the class each fall and continue through spring and summer to complete the course. Seating is limited. “Spanish 1” is intended to meet the needs of students who have little or no background in Spanish. Students will learn by practicing basic structures of the language with an emphasis on listening, repetition and oral practice. Students will learn Spanish phonetic spelling and will be asked to produce easy sentences based on already-introduced vocabulary. Students who attend for a full year may be ready to move on to “Spanish 2,” but they are also welcome to stay in “Spanish 1” with the understanding that the same material is repeated starting in the fall of every year. It is not necessary to purchase a book, but a dictionary (book or app) can serve as a handy reference. The goal is to leave class every day saying something in Spanish.

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. Instructor/Coordinator: Ricardo Acosta

Preference is given to students who start the class each fall and continue through spring and summer semesters to complete a one-year course. Students learn in a sheltered Spanish-immersion environment. The ability to process moderately complex spoken directions and to generate original sentences both orally and in writing are helpful prerequisites for this level. Opportunities are provided to listen, speak, read and write in Spanish. Students are given preparation so that they can engage in dialogues, roleplaying and interactive activities that promote oral proficiency. Students are encouraged to try their wings, but a safety net is always provided! Topics of high interest are used to promote discussion in Spanish. Vocabulary and idiomatic expressions are explored and linked with the cultural and historical background of Spanish speaking peoples. Points of grammar and practice in verb tense usage are targeted with emphasis on the thinking behind the words. Although we build on past lessons, new students with sufficient fluency can join the class at any time. Instructor/Coordinator: Marjorie Mota

Learning to pronounce a Latin language is much easier than English. English has 24 sounds ascribed to the vowels A, E, I, O, U. Italian has only one sound for each of these five vowels: A in pasta; E in best; I in machine; O in port; U in rude. H is always silent as in hour, honest, honor and heir. Moreover, approximately 65 percent of the words in English come from Latin. More than 15 percent come from Greek. If you speak English, you already know 80 percent of the words in Spanish or Italian.

As OLLI members, we also reflect upon our personal endings. The New Testament book known as “Revelation” has often been depicted as a book about the “End Times.” In this course we will study this book.

The Cold War: Causes, Events, Strategies and Technology
Alternate Tuesdays • Noon.-2 p.m. • Mackey Auditorium September 20, • October 4, 18 • November 1, 15 • December 6 There are few events in history of which it can be said we almost didn’t survive. Nor are there any events in history where the stakes were so high. We have all heard the statement that both sides possessed the power to destroy the earth several times over. But recent scholarship on the subject has uncovered now declassified stories that present a picture more frightening than we thought. Yes, bombers crashed carrying thermonuclear bombs. Yes, at least one ICBM with a nine megaton thermonuclear warhead exploded in its silo on American soil. Yes, there is a theory now circulating that most of our nuclear weapons may not have worked at all. We will demystify the technology behind the horrible weapons that have not had to be used, but we spent trillions developing and deploying. Finally, we will look at the almost anticlimactic end and the possible unnerving results of that ending today, as Vladimir Putin attempts to rebuild the Soviet Empire. Instructor: Ed Woodson

Brewing New Cultures: Vietnam in the Global Coffee Industry
October 27 Speaker: Sarah G. Grant, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Anthropology, CSUF Coordinator: Janice Jeng Vietnam is currently the second largest coffee producer in the world. This may come as a surprise to even the most knowledgeable coffee drinkers. Vietnam produces a grade of Robusta coffee commonly relegated to instant, soluble crystals sold in bulk, with little or no recognition of Vietnam on the label. Vietnamese coffee does not grace the shelves of Starbucks or other globally recognized coffee moguls. The Vietnamese coffee industry, however, is at the crest of the “third wave”—a contemporary specialty coffee movement that places value on country of origin, high quality varietals, and small-scale production and consumption. Vietnamese farmers, traders, café owners and the Vietnamese state are grappling with the possibility of expanding specialty Arabica coffee production and creating a domestic and international consumer market for unadulterated artisanal coffees. Simultaneously, several U.S. based specialty coffee roasters suggest that perhaps Vietnam is the next “coffee frontier.” This talk explores the recent history of Vietnamese coffee—how did post-Indochina and Vietnam War era Vietnam come to be such a massive global coffee producer and how does it remain so invisible on the global market? And what does the future of Vietnamese coffee look like for farmers, traders and consumers alike? Building on over three years of anthropological research in Vietnam, this talk seeks to answer these questions and provide a general picture of Vietnam’s contemporary coffee culture from the farm to the cup.
The Healing Flora of Brazil’s African Diaspora
November 10 Speaker: Robert Voeks, Professor of Geography, CSUF, and Editor-in-Chief, Economic Botany Coordinator: Janice Jeng The transatlantic movement of over 11 million enslaved Africans represents the greatest forced migration in history. Stripped of their material culture and transported thousands of kilometers from their homeland, African slaves faced monumental barriers to retaining their traditional knowledge and use of plants. Research from several points in the Americas suggests, however, that Africans and their descendants drew upon their own medicinal plant traditions, as well as those of their European captors and enslaved Amerindian companions, to forge novel relations with the New World’s flora. This talk explores the process of ethnobotanical diffusion by means of a case study of Brazil’s Candomblé religion, a belief system that was introduced by African slaves during the colonial era and that continues to employ a large pharmacopoeia of healing plants.

The Rise and Fall of Olympic Amateurism
December 1 Speaker: John Gleaves, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Kinesiology, CSUF Coordinator: Janice Jeng Amateurism was one of the founding principles of the Olympic Games. Today, professional stars like LeBron James and Serena Williams grace the top steps of the medals podium while advertising their latest shoe endorsement. Dr. John Gleaves will share how amateurism, a product of Victorian Britain, rose to become an international sporting practice before ultimately disappearing from Olympic sport as the Games became a highly commercialized and profitable endeavor. Focusing on the stories behind the story, Dr. Gleaves will draw upon the wealth of archive material and research that produced his latest book, “The Rise and Fall of Olympic Amateurism,” co-authored with his CSUF colleague, Matthew Llewellyn, associate professor, CSUF Department of Kinesiology.

History of the Byzantine Empire, The Caesars Four Thursdays • 10 a.m.-11:30 a.m. • Mackey Auditorium Instructor: Judge Luis Cardenas Coordinator: Len Leventhal
1260 A.D. to 1453 A.D. The End of the Byzantine (Roman) World
October 13 The Byzantines were able to recover Constantinople from the Crusaders in 1260 A.D. However, the loss of this great city and capital of the Eastern Roman Empire in 1204 A.D. proved to be a military, political and financial disaster from which even the most talented and energetic emperors could not recover. It took almost 200 long and painful years for the remnants of this great civilization to disappear forever. We will discuss the Herculean efforts by the Byzantine government to restore the empire to its original luster as a world superpower. In 1453 Mehmet laid siege to Constantinople, and after a gallant defense of four months led by Constantine XI, the Turks breached the battered ancient city walls. After 2,200 years, the Roman world of Augustus, Trajan, Justinian and Basil II was no more.
The Caesars: Might and Madness; Start of a New Series
October 27 As a preface to the story of the Caesars, we look at the life of Julius Caesar. Although he was never “emperor,” Julius Caesar was instrumental in the transition of the Roman world, from a republic to an empire. He was born in 100 B.C., and in 44 B.C. unwillingly gave his life to pave the path to power for the first emperor: Augustus. In honor of the founder of the imperial system, all the rulers of Rome took the title Caesar. For the next 1,500 years, the Caesars held sway over the greatest empire in history.

Augustus
November 10 and December 1 Gaius Octavius, also known by the honorific title: Augustus, was born in 63 B.C. He was the grand-nephew of Julius Caesar and, to everyone’s surprise, he was named in Caesar’s will as his heir. At age eighteen, Octavius inherited the daunting task of avenging the assassination of Caesar. His chief rival was Marc Antony, Caesar’s friend and top general. At first they united purposes in hunting down and executing the conspirators responsible for Caesar’s death. They both wanted to run the empire and to avoid civil war, so they divided the Roman world, with Antony taking the east and Octavius remaining in the west. There was no room for two egos of this size. In 31 B.C., Octavius’s admiral, Agrippa, defeated the combined naval forces of Antony and Cleopatra. As ruler of the Roman Empire, Augustus and his wife Livia proved to be talented, energetic and skillful administrators. They created the Roman Peace (Pax Romana) and set up the constitutional system of imperial government that would last until the end.

Curious about How Scientific Explanations Are Developed? A Lab-Based Class for Non-Scientists
Every Tuesday • 2:30 p.m.-4 p.m. • Room 9 September 13, 20, 27 • October 4, 11, 18, 25 • November 1, 8, 15, (22 break), 29 • December 6 Pre-registration Required—Lab Fee: $5 Far back in time, scientific knowledge was simpler and often available to the everyday man and woman. Common events were explained (often not scientifically) in terms that were easily understood. Most of the current complexity in science came much later, but this modern storehouse of scientific knowledge was built upon a thousand years of simpler explanations. For those who would like to understand how scientific minds have analyzed the world around us, surveying the history of science is a good starting point. Understanding scientific analysis is easy enough for some of the more obvious events and phenomena, but it takes some simple experimenting to grasp the true nature of the scientific world-view. For that reason, every lecture topic will have an accompanying lab. This class is limited to 20 participants on a first-come, first-served basis. Register and pay at the OLLI office. Instructor/Coordinator: Byron Yates

Our World in Change: Science, Engineering, and Technology for a Realistic, Sustainable Future Every Tuesday • 1:15 p.m.-3:15 p.m. • Shapiro CD September 13, 20, 27 • October 4, 11, 18, 25 • November 1, 8, 15, (22 break), 29 • December 6 “The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it.”—Neil deGrasse Tyson Hear real climate scientists explain the causes of abrupt climate change and the worsening of climate when we reject remediation. Learn how belated and uncertain actions prevent climate scientists from accurately predicting what is in store. Understand the need for ongoing adaptation to current climate changes and for mitigation of future disruptions. Hidden future warming is being rapidly stored-up in oceans, but released extremely slowly. We constantly add to it by emitting extra greenhouse gases and will continue to do so until we transition to sustainable carbon-neutral energy sources. Learn the consequences of a warmer earth, including: melting glaciers, ice caps and permafrost; resultant rising seas; ocean acidification; losses of flora, fauna, water supplies and agricultural productivity; and increases in extreme weather, such as heat waves, longer droughts and larger storms and floods. Understand the certain disruption of “all creatures, great and small,” including extinctions that will continue to worsen if we fail to quit polluting our atmosphere by burning fossil fuels. In the worst case, earth may well become unable to support society as we know it. Hear about available and emerging technologies that can provide fully-scalable, sustainable, fossil-free energy production for adaptation and mitigation. Discuss the politics of remediation.

Science For You: Deciphering the Mystery of Matter
Every Thursday • 10 a.m.-11:45 a.m. • Shapiro ABCD September 15, 22, 29 • October 6, 13, 20, 27 • November 3, 10, 17, (24 break) • December 1, 8 Matter is the raw material of the universe. Our complex world is generated from only about a hundred chemical elements that combine in simple, welldefined ways. This course is geared toward anyone with a curious mind; there are no other prerequisites. Each class consists of two DVD lectures from The Great Courses; after each lecture you’ll have a chance to ask questions and discuss the information that’s been presented. We’ll start with the fundamentals of matter, energy and entropy, then move on to the crucial mission of chemistry: explaining how matter behaves, including why salt melts ice, whether car wax is necessary and, of course, why matter matters. Instructors/Coordinators: Susan Hanna and Rick Hearn
What’s In Our Future? Big Data + Technology!
Alternate Mondays • 3:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m. • Shapiro CD September 19 • October 3, 17, 31 • November 14 • December 5 The “Internet of Things” will become the “Internet of Everything.” Last spring we discussed big data/technology, how it is being used today and how it may be used in the future. We will try and predict the future from what we know now, but will we be able to predict our future from things we don’t yet know? This year we will envision: new ways to learn and teach; new methods to diagnose and heal; how we will live; how we will manage and spend our money; new ways we will get around and how we will work. “No more papers, no more books, no more teacher’s dirty looks” may be closer than we think! This class will use videos, speakers and lectures and have a lot of group discussion. Prepare to live in the future for a few hours every other week Instructor/Coordinator: Gene Brown
COMPUTERS AND MOBILE DEVICES EDUCATION Unlike most OLLI courses, which last an entire semester, computer (laptops, notebooks, or desktop) and mobile device (smartphones or tablets) classes are presented in a variety of formats. There are three sessions in the semester–first four weeks (Session 1), middle four weeks (Session 2) and last four weeks (Session 3). A computer or mobile device course may be offered in any one of the sessions, or the more popular courses may be offered more than once (repeated) during the semester to give members more opportunities to take the course. Some classes extend for eight weeks, bridging sessions 1-2 or 2-3. Several classes are being offered in one or two day workshops, so members may select the classes that suit their interest and time availability.

Registration Procedures for Computer and Mobile Device Classes Due to space limitations and the popularity of computer and mobile device classes, pre-registration in the OLLI office is required. Modest course lab fees are charged due to the need to maintain hardware, software and other equipment in the computer labs. See class descriptions for specifics on fees. Pre-registration begins two weeks before the beginning of a session: Session 1: September 12-October 7; Office pre-registration begins August 8.
Session 2: October 10-November 4; Office pre-registration begins September 26.
Session 3: November 7-December 9; Office pre-registration begins October 24.
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 date/time-stamped copies of the form to the first class 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. The Computer Education Committee (CEC) invites your participation in enriching our current and future curricula, especially if you would like to share your expertise. Please attend our monthly meetings on the first Thursday of the month in Room 20. Chair: Bob Newcomb

Workshops on Google Apps The CEC is offering a series of one- or two-day workshops on specific applications that are available free from Google that may be useful to seniors. While some of the Google apps offer functions similar to Microsoft Office, the Google apps offer automatic backup, unlimited storage, very precise sharing capabilities, easier menus to learn, and documents that are edited in an internet browser, not a program installed on a specific computer. Thus all files are accessible to you and your collaborators, anywhere, anytime and with any type of computer or mobile device with an internet connection.
Gmail and Setting Up a Google Account––WBX2 (This workshop is offered twice) WBX2a: Tuesday and Thursday • 9:30 a.m.-11:30 a.m. • Room 20 Session 1: September 13 and 15 WBX2b: Tuesday and Thursday • 9:30 a.m.-11:30 a.m. • Room 20 Session 1: September 27 and 29 Prerequisite: Must have a functioning computer Pre-registration Required—Lab Fee: $10 This course is a gateway to other Google-based courses for those who do not have a functioning Gmail account or do not know how to set one up. Learn how to set up and safely use a Google account which you can access with any computer or mobile device connected to the internet. Learn how to send and open attachments, reply and forward emails, filter emails, create and organize contacts, as well as organizing your emails into useful folders. Those signing up for this workshop may also wish to sign up for the workshop “Google Drive: Introduction,” which runs concurrently with this Gmail workshop.

This workshop is intended as an introduction for those who have established a Gmail account, but who have little to no experience with using Google Drive, Docs etc. This is the first real step to “cloud computing” in that all the documents that you create are stored in your private space (your “Google Drive” on interlinked Google servers located at many sites around the world “in the clouds”). You will be introduced to the editing tools and sharing features mediated by an internet browser (Chrome preferred) to create, edit and selectively share a variety of documents. There is no limit to the amount of storage space for your documents as long as they exist in a Google Docs format. Instructors/Coordinators: Richard McCaman, Warren Wilson and Dan Coby
Google Drive: File Creation and Organization––WIX3-2
Tuesday and Thursday • 2:15 p.m.-4:15 p.m. • Room 20 Session 1: September 13 and 15 Prerequisites: Must have a functioning Gmail account and be able to send an email created in that account to the CEC (OLLICECclasses@gmail.com) with the subject heading: “Am interested in taking the Google Drive class.” Potential participants must also be able to respond to a reply from instructors. Pre-registration Required—Lab Fee: $10 Google Drive is a Google spp that is free to all persons with a Gmail account, irrespective of which computer or operating system (Windows, Mac, Unix etc.) is used. It features tools that permit you to create and store files and documents (on the web in Google clouds) which are automatically backed-up. The documents may be of unlimited size (single sheet to complete books), with no limits in storage space as long as they are in Google editor format. The Editor is an internet browser (Chrome offers extra features and security but others will work) which offers a powerful editing menu for all of your stored files (documents, spreadsheets, presentations etc.). While those with prior experience with the Editor for Microsoft Office applications will find it easy to adapt to, the less experienced may find it much easier to learn and use than the equivalent Microsoft products. The sharing controls for each file or folder provide unmatched ease of collaboration and avoids the necessity of having to resolve differences between different versions. Your Drive and the files and folders stored on it, are accessible to you and your collaborators, anytime, anyplace and on any device that has access to the internet.

Myanmar
October 27 Speaker: Dorothy Sailor Myanmar is a large Buddhist nation in Southeast Asia. Lois Austin and Dorothy Sailor explored the nation via the Irrawaddy River and by land. Everywhere were gold-covered temples, especially in historic Bagan, the home of Theravada Buddhism. New facilities for tourism are blossoming here. People everywhere were very friendly, mostly engaged in agriculture or handicrafts, and many wore traditional dress. The Inle Lake Region was particularly beautiful and interesting. People were self-sufficient. They saw small islands with houses on stilts, canals and hydroponic boat farming to avoid flooding. There was one-foot rowing for fishing. At one of their huge markets, they saw ladies with extensive brass rings around their necks, beautiful handicrafts, and the making of paper, fibers, yarn, material, clothing, umbrellas, cigarettes, cigars and even small boats. The slide presentation includes neighboring Laos.

It was not a grief group, but an opportunity to explore members’ thoughts about death and dying. OLLI’s popular Death Café is an engaging discussion group aimed at opening our minds to this taboo subject. We meet over lunch, since eating serves as a good reminder that one is still alive. All members are invited to select and lead topics that are meaningful to them and to the class, including humor.

Every Friday • 3:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m. • Shapiro ABCD September 16, 23, 30 • October 7, 14, 21, 28 • November 4, (11 holiday), 18, (25 break) • December 2, 9, *December 16, 23, (30 break) • January 6, 13 Poker is a game of skill emphasizing 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 you 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. Some members go out to dinner together after class. Hope to see you there! *This class continues to meet during the intersession on the dates following the asterisk above.
Coordinators: Dave Musante, Rod Collier, Dennis Wilson, Elaine Mitchell and Patti Chikahisa

OTHER ACTIVITIES OLLI-CSUF Collaboration Your life experience and skills are valuable to the University. Whether it’s recounting your personal history, mentoring students, delivering lectures, participating in career panels, tutoring students, judging student presentations or participating as test subjects in university research studies, you will be broadening the students’ educational experience and helping them prepare themselves for successful careers and lives. You will benefit since collaborations with students are a lot of fun and provide you with a way to continue to contribute which, in turn, may enable you to live an even healthier and satisfying long life. Thanks to stellar work done by OLLI volunteers in completed collaborations and enthusiastic responses from the colleges of the university, OLLI members filled more than 500 volunteer opportunities in 2015. A few hours, a one-time effort or an ongoing commitment can be important parts of the success of both students and university programs. See the weekly OLLI News Bytes and the OLLI-CSUF Collaboration section of the OLLI website or contact Collaboration Committee chair Ron Osajima for more information about the variety of opportunities available. Chair: Ron Osajima—ronosajima@gmail.com
OLLI Trips The OLLI Trips Committee plans and coordinates trips of educational interest to OLLI members to locations off the CSUF campus. These trips are OLLI Special Events and are subject to the Special Events Registration Policy section located elsewhere in this catalog. Trips are of two types: day trips and overnight trips. Some recent or planned day trips include Reagan Library, Modjeska House and JPL. Some recent or planned overnight trips include Utah Canyonlands, Sequoia and Washington, DC. Members are notified of upcoming trips via the ChroniCLE, the OLLI News Bytes and the OLLI bulletin board. If you have ideas for future trips, bring them to the Trips Committee meetings described in the OLLI Meetings section of this catalog.

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 on a date assigned by the OLLI office. This date is approximately one week after the mailing of the ChroniCLE first announcing the event. 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. Forms submitted by mail (post office or electronic) prior to the date of the beginning of registration will be entered at the end of the first day of registration. 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. A registered participant who is unable to attend an event 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.
Notes on Curriculum / Format / Frequency Classes fall into these general categories: The Arts; Languages; Economics, Humanities and Social Sciences; Healthy Living; Science and Technology; and Special Interest Groups and Social Programs. 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 for class meeting times, days and dates. Other programs include special events, field trips and other activities, some of which require a modest payment.
