OLLI POLICY STATEMENT In the spirit of fostering understanding, each OLLI member is encouraged to share opinions and ideas. OLLI class participants do not attempt to “convert” others because there is a mutual respect for each member’s experiences, ideas, value systems and beliefs. The true focus of an OLLI class is the critical examination of issues and opinions. Each participant’s point of view carries equal weight. Consensus is not a goal. We encourage participants with all points of view to attend and become engaged through discussion and civil debate. YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS

Providing your email address is extremely important: ¾ We provide course confirmations and evaluations via email. ¾ Your facilitator provides course information via email. In some cases, being able to receive email is a course requirement. ¾ We can contact you quickly with any course changes via email. ¾ End of session evaluations are now electronic and you are provided the electronic link via email to the evaluation form. ¾ We will soon be providing online registration allowing you to pay by credit card. To use that system, you will be required to have your own, unique email address.

In response to OLLI at DU membersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; strong desire for internationally focused classes and educational travel, WorldView was designed to bring both to OLLI. Each academic year we focus on a different country. We provide classes and InterActive activities related to that country throughout the year and also plan one or more trips to that country. The 2017-2018 academic year will highlight Mexico. Throughout the year, you will find various classes related to Mexico at our OLLI sites. In addition, there will be programs designed to bring an up-close and personal look at this intriguing country, from its history and politics to its culture and beauty. After each of the three terms, a custom-designed trip to different areas of Mexico will be offered. If you have Mexican connections or would like to facilitate a class or presentation on Mexico, please share such with your Site Manager or Curriculum Committee. The Curriculum Committee members are listed on page 53 of this publication.

Title: Write that Novel! Facilitator: Mike Foster Course Description: In this seven-week course we begin by defining some of the basic aspects of a novel to include the hook, voice, theme, creating and developing characters, managing the plot or story line, writing techniques and the ending. We also probe the strengths or special knowledge you might have that could be incorporated into your story. In the last class, we will consider publishing options, especially self-publishing. In the first, third and fifth classes we focus on your work. You will bring drafts of your novel and read them to the class. Your colleagues and the facilitator will then make comments and raise questions. Everyone is expected to take part in a lively, thoughtful and helpful discussion of your work. In the second, fourth and sixth classes you will gradually read this facilitator’s recent novel, This Above All, and discuss it critically in the same open and courteous way. You will see how he handled the same aspects of his novel that you may be working on in your own; the purpose is to offer you an example, not to suggest a model. Try to forget about models. Think instead about creating your own work. The facilitator will talk about his personal challenges and joys while writing this novel, his second thoughts about it and how his understanding of the story changed as he wrote it—even after it was finished! Come to the first class prepared to answer the following questions: x What is the main idea, or theme, of your novel? x Tell us something about your main character x Why is this story something you want to write about? x Is this a project you are committed to or are you just flexing your creative muscles? Either is okay. x What are your strengths/qualifications for doing this? x Who are your ideal readers? Give succinct responses, so that everyone gets to participate. Course Size: 10 Required Text: Purchase This Above All from Amazon.com or obtain your copy for $10.00 from the facilitator at the first class.

Title: To Infinity and Beyond: Sci-Fi to Reality Facilitator: Barbara Adams Course Description: Do you want to be DAZZLED? We’re the first generation to experience science fiction in film; and the first generation to experience Sputnik, the space program and artificial intelligence. A long time ago in a studio far, far away, George Lucas revolutionized science fiction for the world, and the scientists of that era were born into a world of “Why Nots.” Are we now the Jetsons? What happened to our dreams of future medicine, communication, travel and space aliens? What has NASA given us other than travel in space and a trip to the moon and back? As we view parts of films and documentaries on science fiction and the future, we’ll answer these questions and more. Science fiction may not be fiction, but reality. The course will include: a window to the future, advances in health, robots, artificial intelligence and the singularity, NASA, the true final frontier, new realities and aging and immortality.

Title: Contemporary Issues Regarding Climate Change and Solutions Facilitator: Paul Belanger Course Description: After facilitating several OLLI courses about Earth’s climate, many of you asked for additional information and discussion regarding climate change and solutions. This course will try to meet those desires. The first class will begin with a review of climate change and solutions. Week two will involve a late-morning tour of the National Ice Core Laboratory at the Federal Center in Lakewood which is a facility for storing, curating and studying ice cores from glaciated regions such as Antarctica and Greenland. These cores help us to understand past climates and present global warming. Weeks three through six will be more interactive, with the focus on clarifying misinformation and discussion of how to overcome the inertia to change. Discussions will include reducing emissions with a worldwide energy revolution, future changes in transportation, mitigation solutions to reduce atmospheric CO2 as well as personal individual options we can adopt.

Title: Painting Canada: Tom Thomson and The Group of Seven Facilitator: Karen Lindsay Course Description: The Group of Seven, also known as the Algonquin School, was an organization of self-proclaimed modern landscape artists in Ontario, Canada. Founded in Toronto in 1920, this group of artists became the most important Canadian artists of the first decades of the 20th century. The original Group of Seven included Franklin Carmichael, Lawren Harris, A.Y. Jackson, Franz Johnston, Arthur Lismer, J.E.H. MacDonald and F.H.

Title: Being Italian is a Full-Time Job Facilitator: Ted Borrillo Course Description: I was born in the Bronx of Italian immigrant parents. My parents spoke Italian and very little English. We lived in a very Italian neighborhood where most spoke Italian. I often attended Italian theater with my parents. When I graduated law school, I was required to serve in the Army for several years, one year being in Vicenza, Italy, as a 1st Lieutenant in the Judge Advocate General Corp. At the time, my grandmother, cousins and other relatives were living in San Marco dei Caboti in the Province of Benevento in the south of Italy. My life exposed me to things Italian. I will share informative aspects of my heritage, as well as humorous aspects of my life. The categories of discussion will include: Italian “sayings,” family life, taxation, the legal system, use of titles, variances in the language, differences between north and south Italy, songs, currency, the role of women in the family, filmmaking (to include discussion of the movie “Marty” that won an Academy Award), the influence of Italian neorealism in the cinematic world and other subjects, including those you wish to discuss about Italian culture.

Title: Managing the Maverick Mind Facilitator: Barbe Ratcliffe Course Description: Mindfulness has become one of the latest rages within the United States.

In fact, it is said that our minds and the stories we tell ourselves determine our

TUESDAY responses to life, the impact stress has on our bodies and minds, and our overall experience with life. In this presentation, we will explore aspects of mindfulness; identify some of the tools which can be used and that have proven beneficial in obtaining positive outcomes; and experience a short mindfulness meditation.

Title: Greenbacks and Women Facilitator: Gail Wilson Course Description: Do you know who the seven women are that are slated to appear on our redesigned greenbacks (paper bills)? As of 2017, no female figures grace folding money, only white men. This, however, is changing with the redesign of the $5.00, $10.00 and $20.00 bills with seven standout women from American history and one black man. The women chosen are from women’s suffrage, slavery and civil-rights movements. The gender-sensitive bills will be unveiled in 2020, in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment which granted women the right to vote. While images of Martha Washington and Pocahontas both appeared previously on bills and Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea were on coins, none of those are still in general circulation. Will the placement of women on bills be the demise of these greenbacks? In this course, we will gain an understanding of the seven women and why they were chosen to appear on our greenbacks.

This course will explore how various philosophers in Western history have analyzed ethics. Among others, philosophers covered will be Socrates, Aristotle, John Locke, and John Stuart Mill. We will bring up assorted ethical issues in class, but it is important to note that this will not primarily be a “case study” course.

Title: The Care and Feeding of The American Brain Facilitator: Scott Brown, DC, DABCN, FACAN Course Description: Good News! We are now in the age of exponential progress in many fields, including neuroscience. For instance, it was only recently that science has proven that the human brain can generate new neurons as well as dramatically repair damaged ones. Better nutrition, exercise, social connections, rest, and recreational activities have proven to be the difference between an unfulfilling, diseased life and one of accomplishment and robust health. We are now going to live, not only longer lives, but healthier long lives (for those who make the right choices). We will not want to retire because we will have the health and cognitive function to live more vibrant lives. Many chronic disease states are now being reversed without drugs or surgery, and the knowledge to do this is at our finger tips. This course will be a map for you to use to redesign your brain and all it controls (everything in your life). As a result, we will be discussing not just neuroscience; but, also how brain function and all the autonomic (automatic) life sustaining systems are co-dependent. One of the biggest threats to our health is inflammation. This is a societal problem and is preventable. Inflammation is the culprit in all the preventable diseases which include diabetes, heart disease, and Alzheimer's Disease. We will learn how to, step by step, prevent these diseases, even Alzheimer's, if caught early enough, and even if you are genetically susceptible. These inflammatory diseases are on course to break the health care system within 10 years if we don't. This course is about helping you take charge of your brain and all its partner systems for that healthier, longer life that's coming.

Title: Other Peoples’ Laws Facilitator: Joanne Greenberg Course Description: This class will cover functions and issues of legal systems in their cultural and historical settings. There are new words and terms in this presentation which will be explained. ƕ The first class will provide an introduction. Law is a process that emphasizes the troublesome sides of life. We will discuss apodictic (unbending) versus casuistic (relative) law, etic and emic reality, Privilege Right and Demand Right. We will talk about palimpsest as a cultural factor. ƕ During our second class, we will talk about the plusses and minuses of our oldest and longest practiced legal system: vendetta law. We will also discuss why the celibacy of priests was once a necessary product of European culture. ƕ In the third class, we will go into the presuppositions on which legal systems are based. We will look in on Comanche Law, Inuit Law, Ifuago Law and some Talmudic Law. ƕ In the final class, we will discuss functions of law, the trends of law, legal fictions, and the problems of modern legal systems versus tribal laws when the two come into conflict. We will also discuss which laws and legal systems are viable and which are non-viable. I hope that among the technical insights of various cultures’ laws, there will also be time to talk about the funny sides of legal issues.

Class #: F21 AM: 9:30-11:30 Title: Relooking at the Cold War Facilitator: Don Stanton

Friday, Sep 22

Location: JUC

Presentation Description: Over the past several years the United States has entered a “New Cold War” which has required the development and redeployment of military, cyber and intelligence assets at great costs to the nation. When I mention the Cold War to several classes of students and many adults, I receive few responses. So, it seems, that as time has faded the sacrifices of thousands of service members and their families are being forgotten. Relooking at past experiences and lessons learned can help us confront the New Cold War which we have experienced in Cyberspace, Ukraine, Syria, Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, the South China Sea and other places. This presentation contains a brief macro re-look at the Cold War years, veterans’ remembrances, nuclear deterrence, the growth of the Soviet Navy and a micro look from my experiences hunting their submarines out of Keflavik, Iceland, and Sigonella, Sicily.

FRIDAY SPEAKER SERIES Class #: F31 AM: 9:30-11:30 Friday, Sep 29 Location: JUC Title: Trends, Forces, Choices, Actors—Who and What is Shaping Our Future? Do We Like What We See? Facilitator: Matjaz Bren Presentation Description: Where are we heading as a country? Which paths and crossroads is the world looking at? How much do you know about the challenges and opportunities that are facing you as an individual and all of us on planet Earth? While no one can predict the future, you can look at some mega-trends and make some intelligent assumptions about what the future might hold for all of us. Nation states, immigration, education, defense, health, security, religion: are these and other facets of our lives barreling down a highway to hell or a highway to heaven? Which one do you think it will be?

Class #: F41 AM: 9:30-11:30 Friday, Oct 6 Title: Options at the End of Life – What You Need to Know Facilitator: Arthur K. Strasburger, MD

Location: JUC

Comparisons of the various options will be presented as well as Advanced Directive information. The presentation will finish with a moderated discussion of the ethical implications around this recently passed law, using real life scenarios, and opening a discussion with questions and comments from audience.

Class #: F51 AM: 9:30-11:30 Friday, Oct 13 Title: U.S. Immigration Reform -- the Quandary Facilitators: Bob Gaskill and Tom Hughes

Location: JUC

Presentation Description: What is happening with U.S. immigration reform? What is needed? What are the fixes? What are the roadblocks? Is there a path forward? The answers to these questions are not easy, or even known, in some cases. Immigration, one of our nation’s thorniest, most complex and politically charged issues, is fraught with many conflicts and obstacles: national security, American jobs at risk, illegals, Congressional gridlock, opposing ideologies and diversity to name a few. Nine years ago, the University of Denver’s 2008 Strategic Issues Panel confronted immigration, both legal and illegal. Shortly after completion, Dr. James Griesemer, who chaired

FRIDAY SPEAKER SERIES the panel, gave a summary of their report to OLLI explaining the panel’s recommendation for reforming our immigration system. While this peaked Bob’s interest in the subject then, it was after nearly a decade of continued inaction on virtually every front, that he decided to put together this presentation. His objective is to bring to OLLI the panel’s recommendations, supporting rationale, progress to date, and some insight into the problems still confronting immigration reform, so urgently needed now, more than ever before. Following Bob’s presentation, Tom Hughes will show the documentary, “The Other Side of Immigration,” which asks, “Why do so many Mexicans emigrate to the United States? What happens to the families and communities they leave behind? ” Based on over 700 interviews, “The Other Side of Immigration” explores the root causes of Mexican immigration to the United States and the effects of migration on rural communities in Mexico. Director Ray German reveals a perspective on undocumented immigration rarely witnessed by American eyes, challenging audiences to imagine more creative and effective bilateral solutions.

Class #: F61 AM: 9:30-11:30 Title: Anthropogenic Global Warming Facilitator: Warren Hamilton

Friday, Oct 20

Location: JUC

Presentation Description: The voluminous scientific evidence is unequivocal. The 40 billion metric tons of CO2, and significant amounts of other greenhouse gasses, that man dumps into the atmosphere each year cause global retention of extra solar heat. Only about three percent of that excess heat stays in the atmosphere; about four percent is absorbed by melting ice; and about 93 percent goes into the oceans. This will be a brief tour through global changes and consequences. Complex interactions and tipping points produce highly irregular responses, and time delays confound detailed predictions, but effects are already large and will increase greatly. For example, the concentrated warming of high northern latitudes, and coincident decrease in temperature gradient to mid latitudes, has already changed northern hemisphere oceanic circulation and behavior of jet stream and air masses. Extreme weather has increased, but where climatic systems will stabilize is much in doubt. The oceans absorb about half the new input of CO2 and the resulting increased acidity, added to the warming water, is already changing marine biotas as well as climate. The disinformation industry (pesticides, tobacco, and food additives are harmless, etc.) attacks any science and scientists whose findings suggest any action that would cut profits of its corporate sponsors. Much of that industry is currently obfuscating "climate change," and has convinced half the population, and its politicians, that science and scientists are data-falsifying conspirators against capitalism.

FRIDAY SPEAKER SERIES Class #: F71 AM: 9:30 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 11:30 Friday, Oct 27 Title: Refugees: In Their Own Words Facilitator: Shelley Murphy (with panel)

Location: JUC

Presentation Description: Did you know that that more than 50,000 refugees call Colorado home? Yet most of us know little about them. Have you ever wondered where they are from, how did they get here, and how have they managed to rebuild their lives in a society so vastly different from the home they fled? Our presentation will serve as a space for a panel of refugees to share their compelling stories--personal testimonies of hardship, persecution and loss as well as their hopes, perseverance and determination. Following their presentations, audience members will have an opportunity to pose questions to panelists.

OLLI West Facilitators & Presenters At the heart of OLLI are our facilitators and curriculum. OLLI is successful because every term we have an intriguing curriculum and a “faculty” of dedicated people volunteering their time to make it happen. They all find many ways to organize a class based on the topic and their style – some prepare discussion questions from the text they have chosen; some prefer using lecture tapes and building a discussion around them; others have members of the class give reports; and many invite guest lecturers.
