2 | Osher Fall 2020 Seminars | LEARNING IS FOREVER OSHER LIFELONG WELCOME TO THE OSHER LIFELONG LEARNING LEARNING INSTITUTE INSTITUTE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (UDOLLI) began 26 years ago as the University of Dayton Institute for Learning in Retirement or UDILR. Since 2004, we have been proud members of the Osher Lifelong Learning Network, a group of more than 100 institutes across the country dedicated to meeting the needs of adult learners over 50 years of age who wish to gather for the joy of learning and personal fulfillment.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT The purpose of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Dayton is to offer adults 50 years or better a wide variety of seminars based on the peer-learning concept and designed to be intellectually stimulating in an informal and noncompetitive environment. We are a vibrant community We are adults with wide-ranging interests in art, current events, health and fitness, history, literature, music, religion and science. A curriculum committee works with the Executive Director of Special Programs and Continuing Education to select our curriculum on the basis of member requests, the expertise of moderators, variety and balance. Moderators include University of Dayton (UD) professors and community professionals who lead peer-to-peer informal lecture and discussion seminars that typically meet once a week for two hours, for four to eight weeks. The summer program consists of two one-day sessions, three lunch-and-learn presentations, five seminars, one being offered online. Our seminars are noncredit There are neither tests nor grades, nor educational requirements. Participation is essential, ranging from keeping up with assigned readings and contributing to seminar discussion to sharing the results of one’s own research. UDOLLI is a cooperative venture We rely on the contributions and participation, both in seminars and out, of each member. Members assist the Executive Director of Special Programs and Continuing Education by moderating seminars, coordinating lecture series, leading small group discussions, organizing activities and volunteer projects, serving on the board of advisors and committees, acting as seminar liaisons, helping in and volunteering for all other tasks that keep us going.

Police Reform in America On the heels of Covid-19, America is facing unprecedented challenges about policing. The recent and fresh calls for ‘reform’ challenge many historic precedents, assumptions and funding. Riots, fear and violent confrontations in the streets are played out 24/7 on social-media and television. Allegations of racism and excessive force against police echo throughout the country. The U.S. Constitution and State Constitutions have historically decentralized authority for policing at the Federal, State and Local levels. American’s have taken great pride in maintaining state local control over public services, including police. Where do we go from here? 6 Mondays, October 5-November 9 3-5 p.m., ZOOM

6 | Osher Fall 2020 Seminars | LEARNING IS FOREVER TUESDAY SEMINARS Jesus in John’s Gospel, Part I We reflect on the first part of John’s Gospel (Chapters 1 to 12, the Book of Signs). Special emphasis is placed on how John represents Jesus as the Enfleshed Word of God, the Bread of Life, the Light of the World and our Life and Resurrection. We then examine the relevance these insights can have for our relationship with Christ today. 6 Tuesdays, October 6-November 10 9:30-11:30 a.m., ZOOM Required text: A copy of the New Testament is required.

So, Whatever Happened to General Motors? At some time or another you’ve likely heard the expression “What’s good for General Motors is good for America.” Indeed for much of its now 112 year history, GM was arguably the world’s most important company and by the 1920s had become the model for the multi-divisional, global and modern corporation. Locally, many of us have heard people sigh and proclaim: “Well back in the day Dayton used to be a really big GM town.” But that’s history now. Indeed as late as 1990 five Dayton area GM plants employed more than 20,000. Today the only GM-related facility remaining employs fewer than 800. In this seminar we’ll explore the complex formation of GM in 1908, follow it through the company’s rapid growth years in the 20s and 30s, comment on the important part it played during World War II, take a look at the “golden years” of the 50s and 60s and then explore a bit of GM’s controversial “dark side.” Later, we’ll grapple with what some have termed those dismal years in the 70s and 80s when both quality and market-share declined precipitously. At its height in 1961 GM’s had captured 51% of the market, but by the time the company exited bankruptcy in 2009 its market share had dropped to 17% about where it stands today. The bottom line in this seminar will be the question: What happened to this once proud American corporation and should we care? Given that Dayton was once considered a major “GM Town” we’ll allow time for observations by seminar participants who may have worked for one of the former GM plants or suppliers or who had family who worked for GM. Additionally, seminar participants will receive a copy of the transcript from the October 2019 UDOLLI panel discussion that addressed the reasons for the demise of the local GM presence. 6 Tuesdays, October 6-November 10 12:30-2:30 p.m., ZOOM Seminar Limit: 20 Dr. Ed Garten has taught numerous earlier seminars on automotive history and car culture for UDOLLI.

Are you interested in moderating a seminar? Moderators are the life blood of our program: without moderators, there’s no UDOLLI. If you have a passion for a subject that might be interesting to others, consider offering it as a seminar. It can be a lot of work, but it’s almost always very rewarding and a lot of fun. It also comes with perks: free seminars for you and your spouse for a year. Best of all, it’s easy! If you’d like to propose a topic, send a proposal to [email protected]. Include the following: 1. Your name, mailing address, phone number and email address 2. The title of your seminar, with a brief description of what the seminar participants will learn 3. Any special requirements 4. A brief biography demonstrating your expertise in the subject area and your presentation abilities. Let us know if you’d like a sample proposal. Julie Mitchell, the executive director of UD’s office of Special Programs and Continuing Education, will discuss your seminar proposal with the UDOLLI curriculum committee. If your topic is selected, you’ll be asked to fill out a moderator/ seminar information form. This will give us the information we need for our course catalog, explain your room setup and audio/visual requirements, and tell us the days and times you’re available to moderate.
