Academy of Lifelong Learning Course Catalog Spring 2020

A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

You’ve heard about the old Chinese curse that warns, “May you live in interesting times.” The times we are in are definitely interesting, but they can also be nerve-racking. Which makes this a perfect time to sign up for a class, a trip, or a lecture with WC-ALL. We offer some wonderful opportunities for escape in the company of an enjoyable community of lifelong learners.

The Curriculum Committee has an attractive lineup for the Spring semester, including “Chestertown History 1850-1925,” “ ‘’ Listening Party,” “A Hitchhiker’s Guide to Buddhism,” and “The Joy of New Orleans Jazz,” among others. You can learn about “The Mainstay — Home of Musical Magic,” “Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Your Brain,” “Dangerous Infections and How They Get the Upper Hand,” and “Sunday at the Movies: Espionage.” Interesting, AND free of stress. We are fortunate to have instructors who are knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects, even experts in their fields. Your fellow students are often quite knowledgeable as well.

Registration is open now until Tuesday, January 14. On-line registration is the easiest way to join WC-ALL, using the link http://www.washcoll.edu/offices/ wc-all. Credit cards may be used for payment online. We always try to honor everyone’s choices, but some classes are extremely popular and may be oversubscribed. That’s why it’s so important to list your Top Choice for each session. If you choose to use the paper form at the back of the catalog, please pay by check.

We hope to see you at Showcase in January where you may hear from and speak to individual instructors while enjoying refreshments in the good company of your fellow learners.

Hope to see you in class.

9 SESSION 1

SUNDAY AT THE MOVIES: ESPIONAGE, PART 1 Fine & Performing Arts

Nancy Hartman Sundays, January 26 – February 23 (five weeks) 1:30 – 4:30 pm

Film/Moderated Discussion This course examines films in the espionage genre. Part I begins with “The 39 Steps” in 1935, and we will review five movies ranging from the famous, such as “Notorious” starring Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman, to the lesser known, such as “The Man Who Never Was,” starring Clifton Webb and Gloria Grahame. Within a week of each upcoming movie, informational material will be furnished to students by email or regular mail. Additional information about the movies will be provided at the start of each class, and a brief discussion will be held afterward. Note: All movies have subtitles.

NANCY HARTMAN’s insatiable appetite for vintage movies began many years ago. She looks forward to sharing her knowledge of these classic films with WC-ALL members.

10 A HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO BUDDHISM Humanities

Jeff Coomer Mondays, January 27 – March 2 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion It’s the religion that doesn’t require belief in a supreme being, has no holy book or dogma, and relies on personal investigation rather than faith to attain spiritual transcendence. Welcome to Buddhism, the world’s fourth largest religion, with over half a billion followers and a growing presence in the West. This course will be a breezy introduction to the life of Siddhartha Gautama, the man who became the Buddha, and his profound insights on the human condition and the interconnectedness of all beings. Specific topics include the Four Noble Truths of human suffering, the Eightfold Path for attaining spiritual transcendence, karma and rebirth, Buddhist ethics, and the very challenging Buddhist view of consciousness and the “self.” One session will be devoted to Buddhist meditation and how it relates to the mindfulness craze that has swept over America in recent years.

JEFF COOMER is the retired CIO of Black & Decker’s global power tools division, a published poet, and a former certified Tree Steward. His study and practice of Buddhism includes numerous meditation retreats and past service on the governing councils of the Shambhala Meditation Center and the Insight Meditation Community of Charlottesville, Virginia.

11 CHESTERTOWN HISTORY 1850-1925, SELECTED TOPICS History

Bayly Janson-LaPalme Mondays, January 27 – March 2 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture with images

This course focuses on the development of Chestertown’s central business district from the 1840s to the 1920s. While emphasis today is placed on Chestertown’s colonial heritage, the town expanded greatly during the Victorian Era and beyond. Much of the townscape today is the result of a highly progressive business community responding to the growing prosperity of Kent County. Topics include the architectural revolution, the consequences of conflagration, the change from carriages to automobiles, ice cream “saloons,” and the Chester River Bridge. The illustrated lectures are based on extensive research by the instructor on Chestertown buildings and businesses from the mid-nineteenth century through the 1920s.

BAYLY JANSON-LAPALME, PhD, a veteran WC-ALL faculty member, is Professor Emerita of History, Catonsville Community College. She has advanced degrees from the University of Virginia and the University of . She is a specialist in Maryland history and has published five books and 14 articles, mostly focused on 19th century social and economic topics. Six of those articles have been published by the Historical Society of Kent County between 2009 and 2019 and form the basis for this course.

12 MORE ALICE MUNRO Humanities

Jean Austin Mondays, January 27 – March 2 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion

Alice Munro’s stories are both simple and extremely challenging. In this class we will consider both the stories themselves and the influences on Munro’s style and subject matter as a short story writer. Key themes in Munro’s work are the examination of love in several manifestations (romantic love, sexual longing, love’s failures) and our inability to stop the progress of time and how human beings change through time. At the heart of her stories is the premise that memory is selective and unreliable. Class discussion will focus on understanding the stories in relationship to these themes in order to better appreciate Munro’s place as a short story writer. This session will consider stories NOT discussed in the Fall 2019 session.

JEAN AUSTIN has a Master’s in English Literature and many years’ experience teaching adults. Short stories are her favorite literary form and she is passionate about the work of Alice Munro. This class promises lively discussion about women’s lives as portrayed by a gifted writer.

13 THE JOY OF X, REVISITED Math, Science & Technology

Dick Lance Tuesdays, January 28 – March 3 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:00 pm

Lecture/Discussion

Another guided tour through the elements of math from preschool to grad school for anyone who would like to have a second chance at the subject – but this time from an adult perspective. In this step-by-step approach, guided by the text The Joy of X by Steven Strogatz, the material is arranged in six parts: Numbers, Relationships, Shapes, Change, Data, and Frontiers. Although a textbook is not necessary because of handouts, attendees will benefit from reading the book by Strogatz, which is available at bookstores and as an iBook from Apple. Additional readings will be posted on the WC-ALL website.

14 WEALTH AND YOUR MONEY AS A SOVEREIGN INDIVIDUAL Business

George “Doc” Smith Tuesdays, January 28 – March 3 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion We will examine the various ways to accumulate wealth, as well as preserve it. We will discuss ideas and factors outside of our control that can destroy wealth and destroy nations. “Those who fail to remember (financial) history’s lessons are doomed to repeat them.” This class will challenge your thinking, and the participants are encouraged to bring questions.

GEORGE “DOC” SMITH has been an investor, teacher, and speaker about money since 1963. During the 1980s he was a licensed stock broker and financial advisor. He is passionate about financial history and the lessons it can teach. Doc is retired from the US Navy and has an MBA in Finance.

15 DIVIDED – LIVING IN AN AGE OF WALLS Social Science

Warren Beaven Tuesdays, January 28 – March 3 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Readings/Lecture/Discussion

This course is based on Tim Marshall’s newest book Divided – Why We’re Living in an Age of Walls. Mr. Marshall, a well-traveled contributor to British newsprint and television, tries to put the American wall along the Rio Grande in a broader context. Why are so many nations resorting to physical and electronic barriers to prevent the migration of people? We will look at the Great Wall of China, the “Green Line” in Palestine, various barriers in the Arab world, new walls on the Indian subcontinent, and the removal of the “Iron Curtain” in Europe. If time allows we will explore Brexit and Donald Trump’s project on our southern border. All members of the class are strongly encouraged to purchase and read Mr. Marshall’s book Divided – Why We’re Living in an Age of Walls (ISBN 978-1-78396- 397-3) available in paperback for about $11. This course is NOT a sequel to Prisoners of Geography and is a stand-alone course.

REV. WARREN BEAVEN, before going to seminary, received his from the School of Government and Public Administration at in Washington DC, where he took several courses in geopolitics. Last year he led a discussion based on Mr. Marshall’s bestseller Prisoners of Geography. Several members of that class have asked him to lead a course based on Marshall’s newest publication.

16 THE JOY OF NEW ORLEANS JAZZ Fine & Performing Arts

Dave Robinson Wednesdays, January 29 – March 4 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion

New Orleans is a special place that gave rise to a special kind of music. In this course we will tap into the exhilaration and pathos of traditional New Orleans jazz, examining its history, its inner workings, and its relevance to our lives today. Through guided listening and group discussion, we will gain a greater appreciation of what such artists as Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, Sidney Bechet, George Lewis, Kid Thomas and Wynton Marsalis have to say to us. Along the way we’ll examine brass bands, the first jazz record ever made, musical rule-breaking, the role of the church, the primacy of the emotional connection, and some of the music’s stylistic outgrowths. Heck, we might even stage our own second-line parade if we feel like it.

DAVE ROBINSON is a trumpeter and educator specializing in traditional jazz and swing. Before recently relocating to Chestertown from northern Virginia, he served on the jazz faculty of George Mason University. His adult and student bands have played a variety of gigs in Chestertown and Easton (including at Washington College).

18 A STUDY OF THE AMENDMENTS TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, PART I Social Science

Conway Gregory Thursdays, January 30 – March 5 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion

This course is a continuation of a course offered about the U.S. Constitution in the two spring sessions of 2019. We will focus on the study of the 27 amendments to the Constitution. Part I will focus on reviewing the first 10 amendments (better known as the Bill of Rights). In both sessions, the discussion will be on how the Amendments have 1) changed and influenced individual rights; and 2) better defined the responsibilities of the federal government and the 50 state governments. By the end of both sessions, participants should have a better understanding about how the Amendments were intended to improve and update the Constitution. Participants should bring a copy of the U.S. Constitution to each class.

Lecture/Hands-on

This is a course for intermediate photographers who are looking for creative motivation to challenge yourself to create your own body of work.

Film/Moderated Discussion

This course examines films in the espionage genre. Part II includes “The Hunt for Red October” from 1995, and we will review five movies ranging from the famous, such as “The Spy Who Came in from the Cold” starring Richard Burton, to the lesser known, such as “The Counterfeit Traitor,” starring William Holden.

24 THE BIG NEWS FROM THE EARLY DAYS OF TELEVISION Social Science

John Ames & John Christie Mondays, March 16 – April 20 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:15 pm

Lecture/Discussion

Back in the early days of television – when people would watch almost anything on the screen and only your fancy neighbors had their own TVs – the day’s news as conveyed by this brand new medium began to catch on. The concept of the evening news “hour” and the increasingly popular news “anchor” found widespread attention and prominence. But some very big news events themselves for the first time were vividly brought into the American living room as they were happening, and captivated the nation’s attention in an indelible fashion for the generation that watched. Recall the Army-McCarthy Hearings, the 1952 Democratic and Republican National Conventions, the firing of General Douglas McArthur, the Kefauver Crime Committee Hearings and more. During this course we will discuss these and some other events of this time and their public impact, as well as the newscasters that covered them. We hope that participants in the class will come prepared to share their own memories of the new television era.

JOHN AMES and JOHN CHRISTIE, together and separately, have taught a number of WC-ALL classes over many years. They share a common interest in stories from American political history.

Wendy Cronin Mondays, March 16 – April 20 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion & Guest Speakers

How is it possible that the single top infection killer in the world (tuberculosis) was a main focus for newly created public health programs in the United States 130 years ago? It is possible that almost 95% of tuberculosis in the world is NOT multi-drug resistant, and therefore entirely treatable? Why are vaccine-preventable infections causing outbreaks, i.e. measles? Can Ebola in Africa be stopped and are we at risk? Finally, what can be done about the rapid emergence of drug-resistant bacteria? This course will provide insight into the answers to these questions. We will review the local and global impacts of serious contagious diseases noted above, some of which we thought were no longer “a problem.” The successes and failures of public health will be explored. Guest lecturers will include experts in each field from , the Maryland Department of Health, and other institutions. The first three sessions will be devoted to the fascinating history of tuberculosis (which as “Captain of all Men of Death” lead to the demise of such notables as Frederic Chopin, Emily and Charlotte Bronte, and Eleanor Roosevelt), plus risk factors, drug resistance, treatment, and prevention for tuberculosis in the US and globally. Each of the following three sessions will be devoted to the causes and prevention of recent measles outbreaks both here and abroad; the emergence of Ebola in Africa and how we can stop its spread; and lastly, the deadly problem of rapidly emerging drug-resistant bacteria.

WENDY CRONIN is an epidemiologist retired from the Maryland Department of Health where she conducted national TB research in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University and the CDC. Dr. Cronin also worked in least developed countries in infection control, recently consulting with WHO and Hopkins in TB prevention in highly vulnerable populations in Cambodia and Tibetans living in India.

26 THE MAINSTAY – HOME OF MUSICAL MAGIC Fine & Performing Arts/Social Science

Sue Kenyon, facilitator Tuesdays, March 17 – April 21 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm at the Mainstay in Rock Hall

Guest Speakers

This is a team-taught course, exploring the magic of the Mainstay, the well- known and much-beloved music venue on the main street of Rock Hall, Maryland. During the course, we learn about the history of the Mainstay, and explore the sorts of music that its supporters most enjoy, as well as its ongoing attraction to new generations of music lovers. Topics include a look at the unassuming store-front property which became its home almost 25 years ago; the people involved in the early decisions leading to it becoming a cultural center for this small fishing village on the Chesapeake; the wealth of cultural and iconic artifacts which grace its walls; and the people – musicians and music-lovers alike – who knew from the beginning that such an institution would flourish in Rock Hall, and what it could do best. The course will be taught in the Mainstay itself, to afford easy access to both the cultural context of the hall and to the music which is the real reason for the Mainstay’s continued magic.

SUE KENYON is a former professor of anthropology, a music lover, and a member of the Mainstay’s Board of Directors. Guest speakers will include those close to the Mainstay who have valuable insights to share.

27 EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR BRAIN Math, Science & Technology/Health & Wellness

George Spilich Tuesdays, March 17 – April 14 (five weeks) 4:15 – 5:15 pm

Lecture/Discussion/Demonstration

What is consciousness? This course is an overview of how our brain creates what we call consciousness. Each week we will explore a different topic, covering our visual world, language and music perception, memory, addictions and their effect on the brain, and social aspects. The course will consist of some lecture, some demonstration, and class discussion. No previous knowledge of neuroscience (or any science) is expected.

GEORGE SPILICH recently retired after 38 years on the Washington College faculty, where he was the John Toll Professor of Psychology. He is a cognitive neuroscientist with a particular interest in the effects of head trauma and neurodegenerative diseases on mental processes.

28 THE MANY FACES OF FASCISM Humanities/History

Raymond Vergne Wednesdays, March 18 – April 22 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion

Although it affected, influenced and dominated the lives of hundreds of millions of people in the 20th century, Fascism is difficult to define accurately and succinctly. This exercise in history will try to identify the major characteristics of Fascism in different countries, some of which existed under Fascist governments and some which did not, and their differences. The roots and origins of Fascism will be explored, as well as its relationship to established religion, its economic systems, its prejudices and its implacable hostility to Communism. The circumstances around which Fascist movements developed will be discussed, whether these were in Europe, Africa or America. Military operations (World War II) and genocide (the Holocaust) will be brought in peripherally as they relate to Fascist doctrine and ideology. The goal of this exercise is to better understand the phenomenon of Fascism, which so painfully scarred the history of the 20th century.

RAYMOND VERGNE is a retired cardiologist with a graduate degree in Education and interests in history, literature and music. He has previously taught the two-part Don Quijote de la Mancha course for WC-ALL.

29 ARTISTS OF THE 19TH CENTURY, UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL Humanities

Beverly Hall Smith Wednesdays, March 18 – April 15 (five weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm Lecture/Discussion Mid-19th century Paris was the center of the western art world, and a small group of artists who lived and worked there responded to the events of their time. These Impressionists and Post-Impressionists and those associated with them became the catalysts for the new art of the 20th century. We will look up close and personal at five specific artists – Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Gauguin, Van Gogh, and Munch. Significant inventions and events propelled them to move beyond the official French Academy rules for art, which still echoed 15th century Italian Renaissance, to create a new language for the fine arts in the 20th century. Understanding, responding to, or even simply liking 20th century art has often been seen as difficult and confusing for us in the 21st century. Digging into the personal lives and experiences of these five artists will help with the intellectual understanding of what happened and why. There is also, of course, a clear parallel with the human experience in the 21st century.

BEVERLY HALL SMITH has been teaching at WC-ALL since moving to Chestertown in 2014, after a 40-year career as a professor of art history. In addition to extensive teaching experience in many areas of art history, she has also had the opportunity to travel, to study (“up close and personal”), and to photograph numerous works of art. As an art historian, a practicing artist, and an art enthusiast she welcomes students with all levels of experience and appreciation, and welcomes input and discussion.

30 A STUDY OF THE AMENDMENTS TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, PART II Social Science

Conway Gregory Thursdays, March 19 – April 23 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion

This course is a continuation of a course offered about the U.S. Constitution in the two spring sessions of 2019. We will focus on the study of the 27 amendments to the Constitution. In Part II the focus will be on studying Amendments 11 through 27. In both sessions, the discussion will be on how the Amendments have 1) changed and influenced individual rights; and 2) better defined the responsibilities of the federal government and the 50 state governments. By the end of both sessions, participants should have a better understanding about how the Amendments were intended to improve and update the Constitution. Participants should bring a copy of the U.S. Constitution to each class.

CONWAY GREGORY is a retired educator and municipal manager. Since 2016, he has taught several courses concerning Presidential campaigns, the Vice- Presidency, and the U.S. Constitution as well as being one of five instructors sharing a course about their Revolutionary War ancestors in the WC-ALL program.

31 EXAMINING HAMILTON: AN AMERICAN MUSICAL Fine & Performing Arts/Humanities

Maria Wood Thursdays, March 19 – April 23 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:30 pm

Lecture/Discussion

In 2015, Hamilton: An American Musical entered the American cultural landscape with a bold fervor paralleling that of its title character. The show, like its namesake, has making itself a force to be reckoned with in American social, cultural, and even political arenas. Hamilton’s influence continues to unspool through unprecedented commercial success, penetration of the popular culture, and ongoing participation in the public sphere. New works related to the show continue to enter the cultural marketplace, providing additional voices and perspectives in the conversations sparked by Hamilton. What qualities of these texts and what conditions of the world have converged to allow this show to have such a tremendous impact on American society, culture, and even public policy? What does it mean that a high priced piece of entertainment drawing on influences as divergent as gangsta rap, Gilbert and Sullivan, and a work of biographical historiography seemed to bring together such a diverse array of the fractured American public? This course will consider Hamilton: An American Musical as a work of art, a piece of cultural criticism, and an active participant in the national conversation about what it means to be an American. We will use musical works and video clips, coverage in the popular press, and other textual resources. No previous familiarity with Hamilton is required.

MARIA WOOD received a BA from Smith College and a Certificate in Ethnomusicology from the Five College Consortium of Amherst College, Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College, and University of Massachusetts Amherst. She has pursued scholarly work on “Hamilton: An American Musical” since 2015 as a Student Fellow of the Kahn Liberal Arts Institute under an umbrella project titled “Shaping Perceptions,” and completed an Honors Thesis in American Studies titled No John Trumbull: Social, Cultural, and Political Resonances of “Hamilton: An American Musical.”

32 GETTING THERE IS HALF THE FUN – THE GOLDEN AGE OF THE OCEAN LINER Social Science

Jack Shaum Thursdays, March 19 – April 23 (six weeks) 4:15 – 5:15 pm

Lecture/Discussion

Until the advent of the jet airliner in 1958, ocean liners were the only way to cross the North Atlantic. Having begun in the mid-19th century with small wooden paddle wheelers, the era of the transatlantic liner evolved into what many people feel was the grandest mode of transportation ever on earth. Unlike today’s cruise ships, the role of ocean liners was to get people across the Atlantic from point A to point B as quickly and comfortably as possible. It came to be known as the “Atlantic Ferry” and it was extraordinarily competitive, with steamship companies trying to outdo each other as to who had the largest, fastest, or most luxurious vessels. It was also, unfortunately, a time that saw disaster on the North Atlantic with the loss of the Titanic, Lusitania, and Andrea Doria. In the 1930s, despite the depression, glamour and luxury were taken to new heights in famous liners such as the Ile de France, Bremen, Europa, Normandie, Rex, Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth. The ships served in both wars and when World War II ended, more people than ever before packed the liners. That colorful period would last only about 10 years until the jet airliner quickly enticed most North Atlantic travelers away from the ships. By 1969 the “Atlantic Ferry” had all but disappeared. Then unexpectedly in 2004 a new state-of-the-art ocean liner appeared that many feel is the greatest of them all. Her name is the Queen Mary 2 and she proudly crosses the Atlantic today.

JACK SHAUM is an award-winning retired broadcast and print journalist who has had a lifelong love of ships. He is the author of Lost Chester River Steamboats, co-author of Majesty at Sea, and co-ghost writer of Night Boat on the Potomac. He continues to research and write about maritime history.

33 OPERA LECTURE ON TOSCA Fine & Performing Arts
