A Short HistoryThe Center for LifeLong Learning was formed in 2000 by the merger of the Living and Learning Institute (LLI) and Lorain County Community College’s The Academy for Senior Studies (TASS).

A task force of members of both groups worked for over a year to determine the best way to merge LLI’s and TASS’s somewhat different approaches to offering courses and activities to people 50 and over. Merging the two groups combined the strengths of LLI’s peer-led group with the strengths and support of the staff of the Center for LifeLong Learning and Lorain County Community College. Affiliations with LCCC, Oberlin College and the Elderhostel Institute Network were maintained.

The Center for LifeLong Learning offers a rich smorgasbord of classes, discussion groups and trips in convenient locations – LCCC, Avon Lake, Brunswick, Lorain, North Ridgeville, Oberlin and Wellington. Participants enrich their lives and enjoy each other’s company with:• In-depth study and discussion in literature, art, science or

world events.• Excursions to plays, concerts, Cleveland’s sacred landmarks,

historic estates and gardens or the Cleveland Air Show.• Classes to enrich daily living on computers, understanding

investments, physical fitness and golf, or better driving.• Fun classes on becoming a mystery shopper, watercolor lessons,

sharing travel adventures or making crafts, some classes to include grandchildren, too.

The curriculum committee meets monthly, working with The Center for LifeLong Learning’s program coordinator to plan, develop and implement the Center of LifeLong Learning’s courses and programs. Suggestions for programs and volunteers are always welcome.

Women in HistoryThis course starts around 1800 with the settling of Northeast Ohio and the ever-shifting roles of pioneer women. Then we move to progressive sentiment on women’s rights and education for women in the decades prior to the Civil War. These ideas along with abolitionism and temperance had much support in Northeast Ohio during these years, a topic that will be extensively explained. In the later 19th century to early 20th century movement for women suffrage, Northeast Ohio was a state leader, something the course will emphasize.During both world wars, as men served in the military, Northeast Ohio women held jobs that had previously been male dominated, a subject that the class will study. In the relative affluence of the immediate post-WWII years, the ascendant consumerism places women squarely in the homemaker role, a phenomenon that figured strongly in Northeast Ohio life, and which concludes this course.Course Number: NHIS 131C

PHYSICAL ED AND RECREATION

YogaThis five-week course will utilize the science of Yoga, incorporating breath, gentle stretching, strengthening, deep relaxation, affirmation and meditation as a tool to experience a heightened sense of well being in and out of class. We are what we have always imagined ourselves to be. The imagination has been limited or conditioned by a culture which sees itself as, at best, minimally well or happy. We must outgrow the cultural conditioning that discourages our continual growth and expand our range of motion, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. We will explore the myths of aging which prevent our becoming more expansive. We will look at our life-style choices, modify or expand them. We will look at changing diet to accommodate our new bodies. We will reaffirm ourselves as dynamic beings. The needs of each student will be acknowledged. Dress comfortably, bring a mat and a positive outlook.Course Number: NHLH 116C

The Rocky Coast of MaineOgunquit, Kennebunkport, Portland, Camden, Freeport, Bar Harbor & Acadia National ParkCreated by glaciers during the Ice Age, there is no stretch of American coastline more dramatic – from Ogunquit to Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Our local guide takes us on a driving tour through historic York and its four areas: York Beach, York Village, York Harbor and Cape Neddick, the home of “Hubble Light.” At Kennebunkport, a Narrated Harbor Cruise aboard the Finestkind will teach you all about lobstering. You will have dinner overlooking the ocean at the end of the day. We travel to Camden, the “prettiest village in Maine” and home to the Windjammers – where you have time to explore and shop. We drive to the peak of Mount Battie for sweeping views of Penobscot Bay and the surrounding islands. We arrive in Bar Harbor and check into the Bluenose Inn. Dinner is included tonight at Looking Glass Restaurant, with spectacular views of Frenchman Bay. On day five a two hour narrated cruise on Frenchman Bay is included.

Exploring the Universe with Gravitational Waves One hundred years ago, Albert Einstein, using his recently developed equations of General Relativity, predicted that accelerated objects of large mass would emit gravitational waves. Like those of light, these waves would propagate throughout the universe at the speed of light. However, the effects of these gravitational waves are so weak that Einstein doubted that they would ever be detected. In February 2016, it was announced that two extremely sensitive instruments had simultaneously detected gravitational waves emanating from two black holes spiraling around each other and then collapsing into one. Professor Dan Stinebring will explain the background of this discovery and indicate how experiments in which he is engaged will further advance our knowledge of gravitational waves. The detection of gravitational waves provides an entirely new method for exploring our universe. Course Number: NCLL 157C
